<p>So there I was, 160 feet below the surface of a foothill in the Shenandoah, making photos per the art director's specs. In this case, it's some texturally interesting, but (deliberately) subject-less walls and cavern ceilings. The images will be incorporated into scrolling tiles forming textures behind the action in a new tablet-oriented game title that was just funded. Authenticity, says the art director! So, down into the mountain we go.<br /><br />Brought your own light to the subject lately? It's Nikon Wednesday - share!<br>

<p>And while I was there, I couldn't resist those nooks and crannies that made for some fun abstracts.</p><div></div>

<p>No additional light here, it was dull and foggy day at the sea. Hope this couple had "a nice day at the sea" nonetheless.<br>
