[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Today's shot was made at our wonderful trip to Thailand this year. We visited a cave near Phetchaburi.
The light inside is mystic and beautiful.
So I made this shot of Stephan - enwraped with light amidst the dark cave - handheld - and perhaps we have seen too much Startreck-movies ;-) - because of the title ;-)

Thanks for looking, have a good start into the new week ...

Fantastic beam of light shining on Stephen. The cave's interior looks like a planet from another world. Hats off to your sturdy hands considering you took this without a tripod. My best regards Sabine.

Hello Sabine!
Wonderful sunbeams! I like the play of light and dark in this cave. Awesome photo for me.
Regards,
Ewa

excellent visualisation and capture.

unfortunately, no one on Star Trek ever said that phrase.
(i am a bit of a trekkie. sorry)

Hello Stephan.
Glad to see Sabine didn't put you under a waterfall.
Not sure if your Rolex had hold that, haha
Good shot, Sabine.
You really set your Stephan in the Sunlight.!
But eh...Next time, please iron his trousers first.
Cheers to you both.

Perfectly executed, the light beam coming as if from outerspace, your pal looks like he is resigned to his fate.
Fantastic work.

Hi sabine. Really cool effect here! Magical lighting, it really does look like out of a sci fi film. You should have got your subject to play along and jump maybe! ;)

all in all great shot.

Thank you for a really nice, fun-watching picture, Sabine! I like the composition, the stone textures of the walls are really rich but above all, I like the SF sunbeam! :)
Happy New Year,

Dieu?! C'est toi?! Je savais que tu étais un etre brillant mais a ce point la,je l'ignoré!! :p
Vraiment superbe..Cela me renvois au temps des hommes des cavernes..on a sacrement évolué,ou pas.

Merci pour cette prise assez originale Wishnu!

Au plaisir!

Hello Sabine !

Having missed too many shots , I am browsing back galleries. The hilarious title caught my attention. Sweet capture and very well chosen title on this one. Even the overexposed Stephan is creating this wonderful effect like he was actually beginning to be teleported. Well done.

Funny as I have watched a few days ago the movie: Chariots of the Gods . He does look like a God. You will see what I mean if you watch the movie.

Have a great weekend !
Robert
