If you go to visit Machu-Picho, and you are not tired enough, I recommed you to climb the Wayna Picho. The view from there is extraordinary (click the link below). While climbing (1 hour aprox.) there´s only another problem: If you suffer of vertigo, maybe you should think over twice before start up. Thanks.

Such a great amount of greens you have here. The man really helps in giving scale to the imense size of these mountains. Very good point of view.

Hola Miguel,
Very attractive PoV that gives us together with this portrait framing a sense of vertigo, very nice greens too, me gusta !
Have a nice week end,
jean-Yves

Hola Miguel,
Muy buen punto de vista, el caminante agrega verdaderamente a la perspectiva. Estare alla en Junio, he estado en Machu Pichu 4 veces, pero nunca he subido al Huayna pichu, sera excusa para hacerlo.
Saludos

Bonjour Miguel
Merci pour cette photo qui donne une idée de ce que nous avons manqué lors de notre visite de Machu Picchu : Si nous y étions monté, nous n'aurions pas eu de sensation de vertige, car le Wayno Picho était dans les nuages...

Muy buena imagen con el río Urubamba, la floresta que hace parecer que el lugar es un bosque (aunque no llega a selva) y las nubes que muestran visualmente la humedad del lugar.
Cuando estuve allí en julio.2003 no pude trepar el Wayna Pichu por falta de tiempo, ya que fui y regresé en el tren el mismo día. La próxima vez será, para no perder vistas como esta.

Alucinante la vista Miguel, pero creo que me costaría llegar hasta ahí, sufro de un vertigo exagerado!
Buen puente.

Muito boa foto, transmitindo uma clara noção de profundidade. Parabéns.

Wow, some depth here. and real green. I like it, Miguel, and although I'm a bit sensitive for vertigoes, I'm very fond of these views. It's the best reward for a difficult climb by foot or by bike. I like that person on the stairs.
The picture reminds me of my visit to Skellig Michael, steep stairs.
I have to go to Machu Picho soon, otherwise I will have no condition any more to climb it. I had problems on the great wall in China, but maybe that was also because I had been sick.
Thanks for this view, my friend. Enjoy your weekend.

Hala Miguel,
Me gusta que nos enseñes estas vistas que normalmente no se conocen de este lugar, para los que todávía no hemos visto esta maravilla!
Has capturado la profundidad de una manera muy buena, con las nubes por debajo, y al fondo el río.
Los colores verdes de la primera mitad son muy reales, casi huelo la humedad que había. Muy vivo.
Por cierto, subiste andando desde el río hasta aquí? se handa mucho?
Un abrazo.

Your picture does a splendid job of making us feel the vertigo you point out. Great DOF and POW. Good job.

Hola Miguel
Impresionante la subidita esta, aun tuviste fuerzas para sacar la foto!.
Csi se siente la humedaz.
Saludos
Toni

Hi Miguel,
So this is from your summer residence I guess? :)

Stunning view, you got both the people close to the camera struggling with the climb and the river and valley far a way - great POV. This landscape is amazing.

Brings vivid memories back to life. My wife had a vertigo episode at the top. She cried for a while huging a rock and regreting it all. Near the peak she found comfort in a small cave & felt so secure she didn't want to leave. I thanked her for her suffering. I felt reallllly bad. Reserve time for this bonus but don't force it on anyone like I did.

Hola Miguel, gracias por tus comentarios sobre mi photo. Tienes fotos muy bonitas en tu galeria. Me gusta está, con una vista preciosa y vertiginosa y estos verdes tan bonitos. Tiene que ser impresionante estar alli.
Gracias

I love that you included a person in this image. It adds a much needed dimension.
Beautiful green and decent details.
