Ice Caves

Uploaded: August 04, 2008 22:08:55

Description

This was taken from an workshop with Marc Adamus and we went exploring for different things. This is one small ice cave that actually was only a few feet tall and I had to crawl in on my hands and knees in water to fit in here but it was fun. It took me almost half an hour laying in glacier water but the exposure was very difficult

Exif: F Number: 13, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 32/10 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 200, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 17.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D

Neat! I love the visual ambiguity that is created by the ice. I am a spelunker myself and so know how difficult it is for one to crawl a mile on one's belly through the freezing water. Well done! #6411189
