Description: Situated in the midst of a tropical mountain forest along the eastern slopes of the Andes, Machu Picchu is one of the 7 wonders of the world. On the 2nd day of my week-long visit, I awoke early and saw the mountains shrouded in fog. As the sun began to burn through the morning fog, the view was truly awe-inspiring. Little did I know at the time, the weather was going to get far more interesting. As evening approached, dark clouds rolled in quickly. Naturally I grabbed my gear and headed straight for Santuario Historico for the best views of Machu Picchu. I quickly setup my tripod and waited. After nearly an hour, a break in the dark clouds developed and this amazing light came streaming down onto the mountaintop. It was truly a breathtaking moment and I was beyond grateful to already be in position to capture it. In less than a minute, the clouds had shifted and the light was gone. It was one of those rare moments in time when the weather gods had conspired in my favor and made the trip to Peru that much more worthwhile.
