Gran Quivira Abstraction (click image to enlarge)

Nikon D810, 1/60 sec, f/16, 105mm, ISO 200

This is a low angle composition of walls at the Gran Quivira pueblo, part of the Salinas Pueblo Missions National Monument. The low angle and longish focal length of 105 mm combine to compress the walls into a seemingly solid stack of stones. In reality, these walls all enclose small rooms, so there is some space between them.

I converted the image to black and white because, well, old stones from the year 1300 just deserve to be photographed in black and white.
