Cave of darkness, a photo from Perlis, West

Photographer's Note

Hello friends in TE.

One of the most distinctive caves in Malaysia is a 370-metre long limestone cave near the small town of Kaki Bukit (literally 'foot hill') called Gua Kelam (Cave of Darkness). Located about 33km north of Kangar, the state capital, Gua Kelam Recreational Park is popular for its enchanting 'cave walk' where you can enter from one end of the cave and come out at a different location.

The only path to the cave is via an eight-foot wide wooden suspension bridge. This bridge links Kaki Bukit to the Wan Tangga Valley, a valley on the opposite end of Gua Kelam. Back in 1935, an Englishman saw the water pathway as a brilliant method to transport tin ore from a mine located near the stream entrance through the underground cavern to Kaki Bukit.

Good natural perspective augmented by the catwalk through the cave. Excellent sharpness & good to have the person for scale. Superb color & lighting. The graphism of lights and darks is superb. Tfs!

Bonjour Jusni,

Les deux barrières qui se prolongent vers l'intérieur de la grotte donnent une belle profondeur à l'image. L'éclairage est bien ajusté à la situation difficile.

Joyeuses Pâques

Salam Jusni
I feel like entering the cave now as the walkway ultimately leads further into the image displaying the good depth. You have captured the low lighting well to get just the right exposure to capture the detail on the cave wall and not over expose the lighter distance. Not an easy place to capture but you have done remarkably well, how beautiful the formations are there, what a difference and wonderful colours. The dim background lighting makes the fig part of the image. Excellent contribution, Congrats, tfs
Salam
