TEARS OF SAMULÀ
Cenote Samula
by Nenad Spasojevic

Lets talk technique? I know we should probably discuss beauty of this place too but I think the photo is worth a 1000 words and you have to experience it to believe it! The challenge was to put this image together because of the dynamic range of light from the dome opening to the upper corner of the dome where I was standing. I had to shoot 15 exposures and manually blend them using only luminosity masks to get this to look how I saw it. What do you think?
