The Treasury after dark

A night visit at Petra is a must when visiting Jordan.

amazing location and visual setting

Thanks a lot!

Uff! So beautiful!

I know the exterior around the Petra entrance is often quite crowded and there are vendors, food carts, etc - so I assume this is a digital composite? But I could be wrong.

But it's a STUNNING image - well done!

Do you mind sharing a little BTS info, how this image came about?

Thank you, John! Fortunately I was lucky enough to be able to run in front of the crowd that opened that night visit at Petra and get a few minutes of almost no man in front of us before the crowd arrived in. I just had to clean a small part of the far left of the image where that souvenir shop is and 2-3 people which were between the columns (so far and tiny). Also a dog came at my girlfriend at some point because she was sitting down but a nice guy from behind managed to keep him out of our frames for a few minutes :) Other technical mumbo jumbo is bracketed exposures for the candles.
