A quick Photo trip to Barnes Loop - Swildons Hole

Myself and Andy Snook from the Wessex decided to meet up and spend a little time in Barnes loop taking in the sights.
We headed down into the Cave and took a picture in the entrance series

Normally we would race through this part of the cave towards Sump 1 or the round trip etc.
On this occasion we decided to try out a few pictures in this beautiful part of the cave.
Barnes loop is a main part of the route into the cave, a little time spent to appreciate its wonders is well Worth the effort.

Never realised how colourful Barnes loop can be, fantastic and pin sharp Sharpy

Particular love the entrance Pic, its very atmospheric.

ps do we need to chip in and buy Andy a razor or is he going for the traditional bearded caver look

You didn't make the poor bloke stand in the water until it went totally still for the photo did you Steve?

Another photographer joins the ranks. The lighting on these is superb. Keep it up. I would be interested to know what camera/flash combination you are using? Being a photographer's model is the best thing you can be - the suffering might give you some fame.
