Al-Khazneh
A fairly classic photo of the most famous facade of Petra, an archaeological wonder listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the most famous symbol of Jordan. There were few people that morning, which was perfect because the narrow passage is usually packed – especially towards the end where one begins to discern Al-Khazneh, the famous "Treasury". The soft forms of the canyon carved by water weakly reflect the light from the side-lit facade, revealing the subtle nuances of the pink sandstone so common in these mountains.
