A very difficult shot. It shows the depth of the prospecting in the cave (12 metres from the photo). There are 6 people, three well seen and three relatively hidden.

  • Weak Support 18mm means the photographer could have used a slower shutter speed and a smaller aperture - f/4 doesn't have sufficient DOF and sharpness IMO. I think something like 1/20s and f/6.3 could have been used - and possibly (I'm not sure on the circumstances) a tripod and an even smaller aperture (f/8 ideally) and lower ISO -- Fir0002 06:13, 2 December 2008 (UTC) reply
  • Support Good enough picture taking in consideration the technical difficult. Shooting at slower speed may cause the workers appears blur.-- Jf268 ( talk) 13:17, 2 December 2008 (UTC) reply
