Grutas de Cacahuamilpa is a show cave in Mexico. They allowed me to photograph in the cave with the stipulation that I could not sell the photos, but could provide them for free on the internet. Photos taken by tourists who share their photos are okay, but professional photographers looking to sell photos need a permit, which I did not have.
So, I haven't sold any, nor produced any. Until now. Partly because my pics from the cave are only marginally good. I was on a normal tour, and not a photo trip. It is a fantastic cave, and would love to do a proper photo trip in there someday, but for now, here are some pics from Grutas de Cacahuamilpa.

It is a big borehole cave, and entrance light can be seen from a long way in.
This stalagmite is forty feet tall!
And this one is 30 feet tall and most elaborate.
Trail shot, showing the size of the cave and the massive formations.
The roof is also adorned with much calcite.
These calcite bosses are just enormous. I wish I had permission to put a person in them for scale.
Another shot along the trail.
This is huge...would really have liked to able to put a person in the shot to show it.
Now that's one big cave room!
And to finish this series, some shield formations, which are fairly rare.
