Description

A woman in a striped blouse leans over a tripod-mounted instrument on a rocky ledge inside a cave. Pale, ridged rock formations line the left side, while the right side falls into deep shadow. A metal railing runs along the ledge in the foreground, and a number label is printed in the lower right corner.

Description, scan 2: A woman in a striped short-sleeved blouse looks through a small instrument mounted on a tripod while holding a long wooden rod that runs diagonally across the foreground. Behind her, a pale, knobbly rock wall rises on the left, and the cave opens into darkness on the right. The ground slopes away toward the lower edge of the frame.
