This candle was on a table at a Peruvian hostel we stayed at that did not have any electricity. This was much less rare than you may think.

I want to you take a moment to think about the angle required to get a photo like this. Rather steep. Perhaps 70°? More? I’m not sure. I shot this trekking in Peru in the Colca Canyon, which is twice as deep as the Grand Canyon. The paths going down the canyon were around a metre wide, and occasionally had straight drops over half a vertical kilometer. This shot was down one of those cliffs, and across a river. I wish I could convey the feeling of being perched on the side of this massive canyon, but it is entirely futile to attempt. It is an indescribable feeling you will only get if you have the luck to experience something like this for yourself. For your sake, I hope you all do.
