Perhaps everyone has a place in the world which he would like to visit ... There is such a place for me - it's Mexico! Even as a child I enthusiastically devoured stories about heroes who explore Mexican expanses in search of the mythical El Dorado. They were riding the mustangs wearing ponchos and drinking tequila. Later I came across a book about the ancient Maya, which described how a Russian scientist Yu.V.Knorozov decipher their writing. Since I was interested in ancient civilizations and learned to speak the words "Teotihuacan", "Quetzalcoatl", "Titicaca" and others without hesitation. At the same time the Viracocha nickname appeared. And the third time I met with Mexico while preparing the review of the literature for the PhD thesis. Accidentally I came across an article in IEEE Spectrum "Electric Rainmaking Technology Gets Mexico's Blessing", about the development of Russian scientists which promises to change Mexico's arid climate. And then I decided that I will definitely go there ...

What it will be, my Mexico?

That is a fantastic sunset scene of Mexico, viracocha!

The forced perspective makes this really stunning, as does the color choices! The cacti and desert landscape seem simple, yet very artistic and creatively effective!  Nice parts usage for the skull.

The sunset sky is superb!

Thank you for the comment, Slegengr!

 

I have drawn some lines on the photo to show the way how the perception of the perspective was done.
