Re: Cheddar Gorge - Caves
Very nice. I have some of my own somewhere taken a summer or two ago, maybe 3, that I've been meaning to edit since then and now. 
You can certainly achieve some good effects with some of the weird formations down there. Did the whole place not look like it was made of cheese to you?

Re: Cheddar Gorge - Caves
Very nice - i assume the blue lighting is some cave lighting, or did you take some studio stuff with you?

Yes the caves are lit - some to produce a 'natural' look, others to produce some colourful effects. Studio stuff? - I only just remembered to take the camera with me!

Wow they are really good images well done. just 1 question can you use a tripod down there or were these shot handheld.

Thanks for the comment.
Tripod, no, I just used handy rocks, handrails and ledges. It's only a basic little camera so I disengage the flash function, and set it on to click on its 10 second timer mode - it then sits still and captures what it can I suppose. No technical know-how involved whatsoever...
