Switzerland Bear cave in the Swiss Jura
Before this hike to the bear cave I made 2 reflections. How do I master the light conditions, dark inside the cave, bright day outside the cave and how can I capture the whole cave or at least an important part in one shot.
But the hike itself was at least as "interesting". The last part was steep, slippery, narrow and partly secured with ropes. An "excursion" where you feel full satisfaction ... afterwards.

Photography Tips
Take many shots with very different aperture settings. Try to take pano shots (my shot is a composite of 8 individual shots).
Travel Information
Go by bus or car to Welschenrohr (parking lot at the church). Then follows a steep hiking trail of about 2 - 2.5 hours depending on your condition and "distraction" by the hobby "photography".
