greatx pictures wanted

Postby Dave Bunnell » Oct 25, 2006 9:47 pm

Do you have any outstanding color photos of Great X cave? The Society is probably going to pay it off soon and we'd like to herald its payment with an article in the News and some nice color photos, possibly even a cover. Please send pix for review to the editor (davebunnell@comcast.net), either as small ones for review if you are submitting several or full size if submitting a few digitals.

I'd love to see more pictures of the notorious Crisco Crack, since it's the feature I purchased. Potentiall it's all the further into the cave I may make it!
Cheers,

Unfortunately, I've got nothing outstanding. I found it really hard to get good photos in there. For every photo I spent a lot of time holding the battery to warm it up. Great Hall was just way too big for me to light up and I had serious issues with fog on the way out (until my battery died entirely).

I'd like to see more photos of Great X, great or otherwise! I'll start with a few of mine:

There's about 25 Great X photos in there if you keep clicking forward. Nothing of the Crisco Crack though.

Aw, looking at your pictures makes me want to go caving ... I'm going through a short hiatus right now (about to have my first baby) and the withdrawal is definitely there.
