Oooh it’s colour inspiration blog time! I love how these themes make me think more about what I shoot and also make me share things I might not otherwise be driven to put “out there.” This time however I’m sharing images that I planned to blog all along, not necessarily as part of a blog circle, but perfect for the theme and (as I mentioned in a previous entry) a location worthy of it’s own spotlight:
Carlsbad Caverns : World Heritage Site : New Mexico
Our Spring Break road trip took us to Texas via New Mexico, from the soft white dunes of White Sands National Monument to the rugged desert landscape of Big Bend National Park and the big cities of Austin and Dallas, to the deep dark caves of Carlsbad Caverns. Or “The Bat Cave” if you’re aged five or six and obsessed with superheroes. And it is {black} down there. Really {black}!
I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t do some in-cave in-camera double exposures, would I? 
I can count the number of times I have handed my camera to a stranger to take a picture of us all on approximately two fingers. This is one of those fingers. Here we all are, adjusting back to the light! It was definitely harder for those without their sunglasses, poor little munchkins!
