Most pictures of Macchu Picchu show the ruins with the rounded Wayna Picchu mountain behind it. Here is the view however from the top of that mountain. The climb takes about an hour or so, straight up the front of the hill. Its a tough climb, but the views from the top, overlooking the ruins, are nothing short of amazing. This picture shows one of the ruined buildings at the top. Macchu Picchu itself would have been just to the left of this frame.

Photo is a stich of 2 pics.

Wonderful perspective and tones of green. Nice job with the crop, positioning the structure on the bottom right. TFS,

Roy
