p.1 #1 · Deer Cave

This is from Deer Cave in Gunung Mulu national park Malaysia. It's a blend of three exposures. It wasn't easy to do for me but I really like the result.

Nice image. However, HDR works well with this kind of images. Need to show some details of the cave walls and the outside for a better effect.

agree with Amaji. Very nice composition still. I think you can get this one pretty good with some tinkering.

I think you have done a very nice job with this...sometimes its nice to have some dark areas with a bit of mystery!

Juhku, I like this very much as it is. I think there is enough detail in the cave for my tastes. The shadows add to the drama.

I like it as is too. The dark areas add make the image have more depth. Great results for a difficult subject and lighting.

p.1 #8 · Deer Cave

Thanks everyone! I was trying to keep it natural and was worrying about contrast between trees and cave. Nice to hear most of you think I did it "right".

I had fourth image for highlights in trees but decided to leave it unused and blow out some highlights because i think it looks better like that. And guess what? I didn't have tripod. :|

I like it as it is too. Hurray for dynamic range! Not everything needs to be compressed.
