inca trail and machu picchu Morning in Machu Picchu

This is how MP streets looks like when the sun rises over the near

mountains, around seven o'clock. These streets (indeed inner passages

of a large palace), normally aren't part of a regular tour journey.

You have to look for them by your own. Comments appreciated.

I have tried a thousand times to take good fotos of ruins, it is pretty damn hard to take excellent shots. Where this is the weakest, IMHO, is the lack of color in the sky.

It's a good enoug image, but I've seen it too many times. it's a little snap-shotty. trying for some more interesting perspectives, angles details would help this type of image a lot.

Michael I agree to you on the lack of color of the sky. That is a result of the position of the sun, more than the existence of those clouds. Nothing, not even a polarizer filter could've improved that, as that one works in skies that are opposed to the sun, which is not the case.

Brendan, I do have many other angles or perspectives of this place in particular, but I chose this one to publish. I doesn't look like a snapshot to me.

Thanks for you comments.

Mereció la pena el lavantarse algo temprano. Te felicito por tu excelente album de MP.
