Absolutely amazing place to visit. It is quite remove but worth the drive. If you are into astronomy, There aren't many better places (sorry, but my telescope isn't camera friendly...Dobs)

Here are three of my favorite shots:

Was there in 2009, as well as many other ruins. It is a fantastic place and you did well. You probably got dozens of other good shots there.

Nice shots. Remote out of the way places are always good for dark transparent skies with big Dobs.

Great views.......

I really like the second one but would crop above the rock pile at the bottom of the frame... it really detracts from the overall feel of the place and is clearly not original... (or unstack it before shootineg)


.... Got some cameras; got some glass ..... I just need one more of each.....:rolleyes:

Beautiful photos. I hope to be going there shortly. Can't wait.
