Most images are approximately 683 times 1024 pixels in size, numbers in front of the picture descriptions are the serial numbers of the original photo files. Names of several cave parts were given by the author. Made with participation of Alojz Troha - Lojz, who generously helped with the lighting, and Nika Troha, his daughter. After the excursion she, with her mastery of modern photo technology, she managed to solve an issue, which the author and her father were tackling in vain in the cave, in one minute.
