Photographer's Note
This was taken while I was standing halfway to the top of the agricultural terraces section looking dow at the bottom terrace and the hills beyond and below it.
The beauty of nature in this area makes me decide that the best way to appreciate it is the same way you would appreciate The Grand Canyon.
It is a mystical place, a monument to divinity, where people can feel that they are a creation of God.
The high sense of spirituality that inhabits this place seems to transport its visitors to a place where everything "in an unimaginable way" is possible.

Hello Andre,
The composition has a fine sense of depth, thanks to use of backlight in the hazy air!
Well done on framing, and the colour palette is attractive...
Greetings,
