Groups of people can be seen exploring spectacular Machu Picchu in this panoramic view from near the entrance. Best seen large to appreciate the scale, this is a stitched three shot panorama of the 15th century Inca site which is located on a mountain ridge at about 8000 feet elevation. The ruins lie in a saddle between the the two mountains Machu Picchu and Huayna Picchu, and are frequently shrouded in clouds. Machu Picchu is situated above a loop of the Urubamba River, which surrounds the site on three sides, with cliffs dropping vertically for 1,480 feet to the river at their base. The site was abandoned after the Spanish conquest, and rediscovered in 1911 by Hiram Bingham. Because it was not known to the Spanish, it is relatively intact, and is a World Heritage site.

Active Assignment Weekly: Expore-ability
Your assignment this week is to take a photograph that captures at least 3 of these criteria:
1) Very captivating thumbnail (without having to see all the details of the picture at a larger size)
2) Eye candy (high desirability and attraction – caters to one’s emotions and senses)
3) Amazing light
4) Color harmonization and contrast
5) Novelty subject (something unusual, cute, extraordinary, artistic, humorous, etc.)
Restriction: Limited Post Processing
WIT: No idea how to get into Explore, but I tried to meet 3 of the 5. To me, this photo has good light (not amazing), looks fairly okay in the thumbnail, may cater to the senses with seemingly harmonized color. So, in the end, I've posted a somewhat maybe explore-able photo, and I'm sure of that.

Explorer # 408 Oct 2 , 2008 Thanls very much, appriciated
Well not exactly Jewells..more like pollution.... oil on asphalt
I went into a business to get my cell phone repaired. When I came out saw these jewels. The light was at an angle that made the water drops, skimmed with oil, produce these amazing colors. I had to grab my S2, it's always nearby and get the shot.
Just added a crop and curves layer in PS.

MADE POSITION #397 IN EXPLORE 8TH JUNE 2010
Best viewed large www.flickr.com/photos/garethscanlon/4682913769/sizes/l/
Taken on Skomer Island, Pembrokeshire. What fantastic birds with fantastic characters, totally un-phased by people. Taken with my 55-200mm VR at ISO400 and edited very slightly, curves and levels and mandatory sharpening only.
Heavy crop on this one.
In explore!! #244 on June 23, 2009!! Thanks so much guys:)
Here is another shot of this very unique place. So many angles to take pictures! That's why I uploaded another one of my faves from the shoot:)
Also, Im thinking of getting a used Nikkor 105mm macro instead of my reversed 50mm which should be awesome! let me know what you think
Have a great day my friends!

Explore #58
Explored (goodness only knows why)
This is so very similar to another explored shot I've taken before but this is just what the bunnies look like when they think it's time to be fed!
Chocolate and Marshmallow weren't best pleased when it wasn't feeding time and I stuffed them into a catbox and took them to their holiday home in Farrington Gurney instead.
Please don't be a chump and post your own photos in comments because this is explored. That's not exactly the way to make friends.
