A cliche title but one I thought to be most adequate -- Where light finally meets dark at the Crystal Cave, Belize. Thanks for viewing and commenting on the other images (last one didn't seem too appealing to this or my Facebook crowd). This one is a bit more traditional, but a little added interest I thought with the reflection on the ceiling. A little tight a the corners but I hope the shape works for you. Thanks for your thoughts.

This image holds a lot of interest to me, in form and color. What a wild place to be.

Your cave shots from Belize have been treat, Navin. This is no exception. I really like the diagonal comp and the complimentary colors. Very nice.

really nice colors in this shot Navin. Just curious, how would it look if you were to burn the top right corner and sort of make the light from the left fall on the pool of water. I'm just thinking in terms of a darker mysterious rendition.

Wonderful mix of colors Navin. The diagonal works well and I like the light level.

Navin, I really like this one! Your comp works great along with some wonderful light and color. A very interesting scene and looking at the large version is a real treat. Nice work on this!

This is a great cave shot. Love the array of colours, the composition works nicely and the light and processing handled perfectly.

Pretty sweet image, Navin. The light, color, and detail are all very impressive. It's hard to tell for sure but the frame seems tilted slightly to the left. Nice work on these cavern images!

Perfect diagonal leading the light into the water. What an amazing grotto.

Navin, the lighting here is special with the sunlight showing off the colors in the pool and creating a fascinating color shift across the frame. I could see some "edge burning" in the ulc as the brightness there pulls my attention away from the shapes and reflections lower down.

Very unique image - great perspective, colours, and I especially love the translucent water.
Congrats on the WP!

Amazing transition of colors and a wonderful interplay of light and shapes for me, Navin.
