The Lightning Temple

This was one scary place in a storm. I can’t overstate that. The whole place felt alien and ancient… there was hardly anyone at this remote temple, and then pretty much everyone left when the storm hit. Between squalls, I took some quick shots as the sun went down, using a rainsleeve over my camera to try to keep it as dry as possible.

    Absolutely Amazing. The dark brooding atmosphere it creates is fantastic.

    Overstate yes! I overestimated my ability to assimilate words that scintillate while forgetting to conciliate the probably mistakes that certainly do not ingratiate me to you, the savvy reader.

    Dude… I don’t like it! U had such ocasion… and now it looks like a computer made image! It’s to exotic to be fantastic and impossible to “read” at the same time! I think u made more dificult for me to read the true feeling of the moment… so…wtf are u doing???

    Where in the world is it, Trey? It looks like something out of Tolkien. I got your feeling immediately when I viewed the top half of the picture. The rest is like a stone pedestal supporting a nightmare.
