The Perfect Wall [Holga]
Machu Picchu, Peru • July 12, 2005
(click in the image for a larger version)
This appearance of this image here is a result of poking through the archives and cleaning up some image folders. I was searching for another Holga image and found this one instead. The scan had been made over a year ago, but I had never done anything with it. Actually, I found quite a lot of Holga scans that I haven't ever worked with. Too many images, too little time...
If memory serves, this wall is from the same structure (the Temple of the Sun) that was featured in a night shot that I posted here quite some time ago. If you crept out to the edge just beyond the window, you would look down on my camera position for the night image. This wall is famous for having some of the most intricate and perfectly fitted stonework at Machu Picchu...all without any mortar.
If you like this type of Holga/toy camera photography, check out my new calendar for 2008, Scenes from a Plastic Lens. This photograph is included in the calendar.
