Window into the Past
Finally getting around to editing some of my photos of my tour of the Square Tower ruin at Mesa Verde NP. What little sunlight we had that morning played well while I was there. The title says it all, I think.

Oops...after I posted this, I saw Joshua's set of photos from his tour, and a similar one to this one. Hope no one minds the duplication...

Nice light and framing. I like the 'stairstep' walls of the first ruin you see. You might consider cropping a half inch or so from the top just for the symmetry's sake.

Thanks for the suggestion, John!

I like John's suggestion. It makes a fine image even stronger.

Really nice composition. Agree with the crop suggestion.

No problem about any duplication. This was a fantastic scene to witness and I'm glad you got to see it too. The light here is wonderful, probably even better than it was the day I went. Great framing too. Crop or no crop, I think I would like it either way. Nicely done!

Thanks, Joshua!
I'm just happy that for even a brief moment, I had the same refined eye for a good photo that you did!
