19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
A Perfect Curve

I was trekking the Inca Trail in Peru when I came across this enchanting little spot. I continue to be fascinated by the precision of the Inca stonework and just how beautifully this spot in particular hugs the side of the mountain - it's the perfect combination of beauty, danger, and innovation. I took out my phone and used the panorama setting to capture the scene. Truly a surreal experience.
