Hello, Carlsbad Caverns National Park! by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: Natural Entrance Trail-13 A view looking down and to the east while walking the path on the Natural Entrance Trail in Carlsbad Caverns National Park. My thinking in composing this image was to capture the look of the man-made walking path as it led into the depths of the cavern. All around would be the cliff wall and areas caught in reflected sunlight, but there would be that one “hole” leading into the darkness below.

Get Yourself to Carlsbad Caverns National Park! by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: Big Room Trail-8 A setting looking towards an amazing display of underground formations while taking in views and walking the Big Room Trail in Carlsbad Caverns National Park. My thinking in composing the image was to center the main group formation in the image center, exposing for the brighter, lighted area. I later pulled out the areas in darkness and used control point to bring out the contrast, saturation and brightness I wanted for the final image.
