Nice shots and you were lucky to have been there without the tourists, at times it can be like Piazza San Marco in Venice! Here's a shot I took about ten years ago after a eight day trek though the mountains to the site on one of the the old Inca Trails. It was taken with a pinhole camera so with the long exposure most people didn't register. Edited May 14, 2020 by petermullett Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted May 14, 2020 Share #9  Posted May 14, 2020 A lovely set. When we were there it was before the government greatly limited access. We arrived in the early afternoon and toured the site with a guide. We stayed at the hotel adjacent to the site so we could get on site nearly two hours before the busses from Aguas Caliente began arriving. We went to the entrance at 5:50 even thought the site didn't open 'til 6:00, and the guard let us in. we immediately went to Huayna Picchu and climbed it. The site was so empty that the first people we saw was on the way down from the peak, near the bottom. We then had plenty of time to enjoy, view and photograph the site with only hotel guests around. None of my photos have any people in them.
