8/29 Fear

Picture Taken August 29th 2010

Taking a break from trees and green, I took a picture of this cave. I would have loved to explore it if I wasn't so afraid of it. I'm not afraid of the dark or tight spaces, but for some reason I didn't want to get too close. I rationalized my fear by telling myself that the many bats in the area probably live there. I made excuses for passing the cave. I told myself there would be nothing to photograph in there, that it was probably a dead end and a small uninteresting cave. I will never know if these things are true. I could say that I left this cave as a little unknown mystery but I passed it by because I feared and had little interest in this unknown cave.
