Madre de Dios at high water.
Macaws flying over head. This is zoomed in and cropped, so low quality. Cool though eh?
OK. Now I'm in Cusco, great view from my room of the central plaza. Strange to be at 10,000 feet after being in the Amazon. I had a bit of elevation sickness and didn't sleep too well this night.
