A link to the article text rather than the photo gallery might be more appropriate http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/print/2011/01/largest-cave...

I wonder how they took the pictures. Was there enough light in the cave thru some holes in the ceiling? Did they install huge lamps or did they use a very long exposure (seems unlikely by looking at the people). either way stunning and surreal photographs!
