One challenge could be understanding sizes. Like it is a very small or very big object. An easy solution is to add to the picture something the viewer familiar with. Like have a person on the picture. That is what I’ve done to help you see how big are the caves!
To make this picture I also had an understanding challenge. As I’ve said these caves are close to the Croatian-Slovenian border – you have to be cautious no to cross the border! We were walking for hours and we knew that the caves must be close … somewhere. Suddenly we spotted a rock on the road with an arrow to the left and some text … in Slovenian. So we have found – go to the left! Luckily my friend could read & understand it. It says: do not go to the left as you would cross the border :) So the caves were to the right.

Who wanna travel for hours to capture a hole? Me!
Ok, it is not a usual hole. It is big, really big. And unique. I was traveling in Slovenia. Checked the web what to visit and found some interesting caves. Short ones you cannot get deep where you need lamps and special accessories. Just perfect for photography :)
I had a map from the internet, still we lost our way. It is close to the Slovenian – Croatian border and we met the border twice before founding the caves. However we were lucky to arrive in time for having beautiful lights!
I made the picture with wide angle lens sitting inside the cave – so you might think that these caves are small. The next post hopefully reveals their real size!
