Lisa, we're the exact opposite... we get excited when we see something like this. Cameras and flashes are pulled out of our cave pack and the shooting begins, from a safe distance of course! ... and yes, caves are VERY dark, we rely on the light sources we pack in!
Oh.....I would have literally flown in the air and out! It must of been very dark in that cave, great shot!
