 Photo taken while on vacation in the Yucatan penninsula.It is of the Temple of Kukulkan (the Maya name for Quetzalcoatl), often referred to as "El Castillo" (the castle). Very beautiful site to visit and I hope I did it some justice. Very large structure and I wish I had a wider angle lens to play with on this one.

Nice clouds and pyramid. Sunrise or sunset would have made this even better.
