thanks ozjami but really the amazing bit was being there. I just pointed my camera at it. We have nothing in this country that comes even remotely close to what this city of the dead is like. incredible just is too limp a description. glad you like it though the image really can’t come close to the reality of this place.

Yes, I can relate Juilee and hadn’t realized you had been till I typed in the search.
I like how you have done these they are sharp yet moody and the colour is perfect.
