Even with an 8 second exposure large elements of the image show no detail, and the colors are simply wrong. IMO a carefully exposed and printed (7 to 8 zones) black and white negative does a much better job of conveying the subtle interplay of shapes, texture and light that make slot canyons so interesting to the landscape photographer.
