Yep, we get to go places few or none have ever been and see things seen by few or none!

Great info Jolly! I've spotted some possible new freshwater crab species that need to be studied too, wonder how to get it started.

TY 4 d ID, Brian... added 2 new pics...
oops, the 1st photo was a partial upload, you may wanna try again, coleen.
No Rachael, haven't seen anything like those 3-pronged caps before, you're coming up with some weird (but GREAT) stuff... maybe some new discoveries? -jerry
WOAH, good get! These are great! Never seen them before! Looks like a miniature fireworks display with yellow poppers!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who lies down on the ground (sometimes guano), in complete darkness, to shot photos! I almost feel normal now... -jerry
Great shots! A good beginning of your cave series, looking forward to the following...
Hmm, chome is what I usually use too. Does the green plus appear when you do a mouse-over? How about in other spottings? Perhaps you can report this on the Support Chat so they are aware of the issue...
very creative lighting!
