Thats an interestion shot Doyle. It looks like that rock could fall on someones'head at any time. :eek: Also, it would be nice if you could give a little explanation of the image along with the camera and settings.

Good illuminated capture of the strange subterranean rock formations. In the background, it looks like the light at the end of the tunnel. Is that the exit or entrance to the cave?
Btw for those who aren't familiar, Ape Cave was named after the St. Helens Apes, who explored the cave extensively after its discovery in 1946.

The light at the end of the tunnel is probably another artificial light. I've walked down to the end of that cave from what I remember the suspended ball is far enough down from the entrance you wouldn't see any light at all without something artificial.
