A view from Machu Picchu Overlooking the Sanctuary and Sacred Valley.

I choose this as my best pano from the last 20 years. It was a fairly easy shoot but getting the right equipment to this site was somewhat challenging. The effort paid off with amazing views of the mountains, the Inca sanctuary and the Sacred Valley below. The weather is often poor for most views but not on this day. Words alone cannot express the joyous feeling of being in the moment at this very special place.
