I finally took a trip up to Carlsbad Caverns.. 750ft underground, and about 60*f. Funny story.. The Caverns were closing, and one of the parks Rangers were politely pushing us out. The last three people out, all photographers with our tri-pods.. :rofl I thought it was funny.. :D

Here's some pics... C&C welcomed...

My first two HDR shots..
I'm not really liking how this first one came out.. Fuzzy for some reason.. and the green is blown out in the foreground.

I'm happy with this 2nd HDR try... Mostly.. Kinda... Crooked, I forgot to fix it. I think I'm hooked. I want to try more soon.

here's the rest... These needed very little PS work.

I'm in LOVE with this shot!! :barb The bottom was a couple hundred feet, to the lower right corner.

I was kind of hoping this guy would stand still... no such luck in either of the three shots.

I have another one of this where someone shined their flashlight in the path of the pic, but made this REALLY cool blue light to it..

And last but not least! One of the bottomless pits. This goes down a couple hundred feet. .. :ivar
