The light and graphically repeating theme really draws you in. Interesting image. Well Done!

What a stunning, superbly balanced composition. The glowing golden-brown colors are most beautiful as is the light. Your art-photo also has a very timeless quality. It could be a doorway from Atlantis, Minoa, Troy or from any mythical ancient Empire which have long since being blown away by the relentless winds of time... :-)

Thank you, Hartmut. Chaco Canyon is a mysterious place. No one knows what these rooms were used for. They weren't living rooms. There's some indication that the entire complex was a ceremonial center.
