Original – View of Machu Picchu from Wayna Picchu, showing the Hiram Bingham Highway used by tour buses to and from the town of Aguas Calientes.

Edit 1: Rainbow flare removed.

Reason

Impressive shot of Machu Picchu from the Wayna Picchu remnants. It depicts the full ruins of the abandoned Mayan city with a high quality. In my personal opinion, it holds a high encyclopedic value.

• Comment - There is a pretty big rainbow flare at the lower left. Should we use File:99 - Machu Picchu - Juin 2009.edit1.jpg where it has been removed? Chris857 (talk) 16:23, 15 January 2013 (UTC)

  I am fine with any. That one could be used too. — ΛΧΣ²¹ 17:54, 15 January 2013 (UTC)

  I'd prefer unedited when it's not too distracting. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 17:53, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
