Photographer's Note
Dated to the Median Empire (728-550 BC), the historic "Kharbas" (Khurbez) Caves were formed naturally more than 2800 years ago due to receding of the water level. Some believe this to be the place of worship of the Mithraism cult or the Anahita Temple (goddess of water & fertility).

I would be grateful for your critiques.

PS: I've added a blue-gradient layer to the sky & blended it with multiply mode. Then increased the contrast of the caves & decreased their lights.
