This is the Inca fortress Sacsayhuaman (elevation approx. 3555 meters). There were originally three towers on top of this site, but these were destroyed by the Spanish.
It was a very bright day. Some parts of the photo are overexposed. I wanted to be sure of getting the details of the stonework, so I set the exposure based on the fortress, not the sky. |
