I know the place, cause I've been there twice, so I know the great difficulty to get a good photo in this place cause eveything seems in one colour.
But here you did an astounding job.
Great detail and crisp sharpness. Cool framing too.
Well done again and congrat,
TFS,

Regards,

Thomas

Hi Maria. Interesting shot, especially since i was told when visiting Hatshepsut's temple that all images of her were destroyed. Obviously our guide overlook to show us this one. Excellent textures and light. The statue seems to be organically linked to the sand below. regards. Klaudio.
