In the Darkness
We visited Mt St Helens this weekend to check out the Ape Caves, a 1.5mile lava tube! It was really chilly down there and no light except a few spots where there were natural skylights (holes).
Playing around with some shots like TedM's Ghosts! post. This one made me LOL. Creepy....! :)
I took the longest exposure I think I've ever taken to get the lava tube shot...... I think it was like 30 seconds. It was so dark!

WOW! Lea, i think you take the prize for the most interesting, fun, and CREEPY picture in the history of FPCF to-date!!! I love it! (Thanks to Ted for the original exposure idea.)
The lava tube photo is cool too, it reminds me of the picture that I took of Gail inside a Hawaiian lava tube that I posted here a couple of years ago.

What a perspective Lea, very interesting colors on the rocks. I like the low light shot as well. Reminds me of some scifi imagery (time shifting).

wow thanks! i was surprised how different photographs in the dark are. everything takes longer ;P
the lava tube has some people walking towards me in the back.. hence the zig zag of light back. and the minerals in the rock would give off a really cool glimmer from the flashlights, i kept trying to catch that...
If you have ever seen the movie The Descent -- i was thinking of it so often while we were in there. Luckily the caves were busy enough that i was terrified!
They're psychically connected. Ooooooo...
