These are the last steps leading down to the main entrance of Machu Picchu - and very late in the afternoon I just about had the whole place to myself except for a few stray llamas. Amazing!

Exceptional textures, tones, clarity, perspective, & presentation here, Beverley!!! Outstanding & beautiful work again,my friend!!! #6751439Beverley Scott November 13, 2008
Thanks Anne and Patrick for your comments. Visiting Machu Picchu was a fantastic experience and it's virtually impossible to capture something a little different from everyone else. Having said that, over 10 hours spread across 2 days I think I photographed every corner, step, terrace and rock! #6752040Brett Dolsen November 14, 2008
