Default Ever felt like Indiana Jones?

If there was one moment in my life when I felt like my hero, (not Spiderman) Indiana Jones, it was when we discovered (guided tour) the Temple of Preah Khan... I had to wait a few minutes for there to be no one walking through the ajoining passageways to get this shot, luckily my wife and guide didn't mind the wait... Probably technically not the best photo in the world, but if it reminds of you of when you were Indiana Jones, it can't be that bad!

Cambodian Temple

Looks like you had to hack your way through a whole lotta jungle to get to this place Gary, but once you did, the shot you captured was well worth it. PAUL

Details of walls came out very nicely, and NO people.
You should do it vertically, would be nice rip with transitions.

Oh it's fantastic Gary! I love your PP on it, and the perspective is awesome. Shots like this, looking along a narrow hallway with opening upon opening are so cool! So Indiana!

Yes, in fact I have! I just added an "L" and voila! So glad you like my home away from home. It is a very cool photo, especially the way your eye is drawn, room by room, to the distance--where the treasure awaits!
