Have to say I *love* the color palette on this one! :thumbs: Aside from that, it's a great composition. Kudos!
I keep coming back to this one. I can't figure out how you processed it, but it is simply enchanting. Esser-like, but perhaps more appealing.

Graffiti believed to be Nabataean, from before 500 AD -- in the Negev desert.







These are a challenge to render, needing some HDR and attention to get the purplish-brown rock varnish color right. I used Capture One 7.1.4. M9, 35 SX FLE. Exposures about 1 stop above "sunny 16."

This is Shivta, (Arabic -- Subeita), one of the largest Nabataean cities along the incense route from Yemen through the Southern Negev. Founded before 100 AD, it flourished until about 800 AD, went through both Christian and Islamic periods before it was abandoned. Rediscovered in 1870. Visited by T. E. Lawrence in 1914.



With ruins covering an area of 300x500 m, it is now a (very obscure) national park, located close to the middle of the border between Israel and Egypt. This morning, we were the only visitors at the site.



Several two and three story buildings are found, along with three churches of considerable size.



The city had no wells or springs, but obtained all its water from collected rainwater.



In Lawrence's day, it was easier to reach this area. Here's what remains today of a station on the Ottoman train line that passes nearby.
