On today’s Weekly Photo Challenge Krista asks ” What does reward mean to you?”
The answer is found in this gallery of photos taken after our six day trek to Machu Picchu in June 2013. Arriving in the early morning of the seventh day, with the sun’s rays illuminating a scene that can best be described as theatrical in its beauty, was a moment of pure magic and the beginning of a never-to-be-forgotten day of wonder and amazement.

These are beautiful shots. I imagine the air was thin and walking difficult. Good work.
