Description
This is a beautiful and intriguing place, deep in the highlands of southern Brazil.
The region was home to indigenous tribes, who told tales of Inca visitors from the far away Andes.
There are many evidences of ancient worshipping, mostly still waiting for proper study.
It's no surprise the ancients felt so strongly about this region.
Rock walls extending all the way into the horizon, as high as 500m, should make anyone feel humble and small.
Not only that, there are also these pyramidal structures, like the one in the back, accentuated by the fog that morning.
Incas in Brazil? Don't know for sure... but they'd surely love this view.
Urubici, Santa Catarina, Brazil.
Altitude approx. 800m.
Enjoy and leave a thought...

I love the quiet sense of loneliness in this. It evokes peace and calmness, with a suspending feeling of weightlessness that's caused by the clouds. But that's just how I feel.

This is a very powerful image, I guess thanks to the composition and weather

Thanks so much. The weather composed the shot for me, mostly, especially for the pyramid - behind it there's a huge cliff that just disappeared amidst the fog.

Sublime. Amazing depth given to this photograph, I like the "darkness" in this too.

Thanks my friend. I guess there was no escape from the 'darkness', as the morning was pretty dark and heavy

This photo tells a story; the fog, the darkness, somber colors all create a great photo. I can almost see an Incan prince/princess standing by the tree
I'd love to visit this place for sure!

Thank you, Kat. That's beautiful. To me the tree stood there as a witness of the events of time... but I hadn't thought about the people who might actually stood there. That's beautiful. And I'm sure you'd love it there. It's overwhelming.
