JOMBLANG CAVE- what an amazing experience and beauty of Mother nature, less visited Place in YOGYAKARTA in Indonesia.

It was really great to see this beauty of Nature through my eyes and capture it for myself and for YOU people as well

JOMBLANG CAVE- it was formed thousands of years ago when a patch of land measuring 300 meters across dropped into a sinkhole. Till now, the vegetation in the cave consists of weeds; mushrooms, ferns and even large trees that remain untouched and preserved over hundreds of years. Descending down to almost 80 meters from the mouth of the cave by zip lining, you can start to smell the damp aging trees standing by layers of rocks built up over the centuries, both a thrilling and exciting experience!
During the right time of the day (somewhere between 10am to 2pm), the sun’s rays shine through the opening, illuminating the forest below, creating a mesmerizing sight to feast your eyes on.

Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in the city called " yogyakarta" in Indonesia

Time

Well, its the day time around 11-12, its the only time when light comes in through the big hole from the above, one should have to be very lucky with weather and time..

Lighting

this cave is very famous for its uniqueness, i taveled around the world a lot but never seen anything like that in only day time and particular time when light comes in through the big hole from the above, one should have to be very lucky with weather and time..

Equipment

I used my canon 6D 24-105 lens and no tripod and flash, its the hand handled photo

Inspiration

I was looking for something unique and special to shoot, i got to know about this place, but i didnt took the tour or package but decided to ride myself to that place but this place is hard to find even on GPS because its in the middle of the jungle, so i took my bike and i was lost in the jungle i looked for around 45minutes but couldn't find it so i thought to give up and come back with the tour later on.. but i found a local village guy who couldn't understand me but i showed him the photo of this place in my phone and he guided me through the jungle to that place, i was very happy and excited that i reached on time and very less people were there.. i am very fond of caves and always try to visit the unique places, So this cave is my real experience and unique one of the life..

Editing

very little bit of contrast and highlights thats it ...nothing else

In my camera bag

well, these days i travel a lot so i carry all my equipments whenever i go somewhere to have the backup with me LumixS1 24-105 NIKON D850 - 24-120 NIkon D750 nikon 70-200 f/4 tamron 15-30 f/2.8 samyang 14mm f/2.8 Samyang 85mm f/1.8 Dji mavic pro drone ATLAS backpack ( camera bag)

Feedback

well, the best advice is to look always something unique and cool places, places that are least explored, go with time at least 3-5 days in a city will allow you to explore more and talk to locals for hidden waterfalls or caves, connect with more people other travelers they advice sometime better from their experiences. Shoot on right time with right equipments and always have patience and never ever give up even if you are failed in something try again.. Create the story and help others to inspire and share....
