Fixer-upper (Pentax 645Nii / MF Portra 160)

            Karnak Temple, Luxor Egypt.  The temple is partially restored, but understandably it's a Herculean task.  Over the centuries many blocks and carvings were destroyed or taken away as construction material, leaving permanent gaps whose content the archeologists can only guess at.

Portra is such a lovely film for shooting antiquities!  Just a perfect tonality and color pallette.  Zoom in twice for a closer look at the hieroglyphics.
