'Dragon Palace Cave' (Oct 06)

Picture taken inside the Dragon Palace Cave.

Trying to take pictures in the difficult lighting conditions within the cave, and from a moving paddle boat, was a challenge. Furthermore, I was seated right at the back of the boat, and couldn't take any picture of the view directly ahead as it was partially blocked by the heads of the other passengers in front of me. I couldn't stand up on the boat either, with all the protruding and overhanging rocks, and the boatman wouldn't allow me to do so in any case as I would then be obstructing his view. And he wasn't willing to cooperate to steer the boat sideways and still it for even a split second to allow me to take pictures. Under the circumstances, it was surprising that I could take any decent image inside the cave at all, and I had to be satisfied with shots like this one.
