Chichen Itza [Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico] Lomo LC-a w/Fuji Sensia 100
The Temple of Kukulkan.
"On the Spring and Autumn equinox, at the rising and setting of the sun, the corner of the structure casts a shadow in the shape of a plumed serpent - Kukulcan, or Quetzalcoatl - along the west side of the north staircase. On these two annual occasions, the shadows from the corner tiers slither down the northern side of the pyramid with the sun's movement to the serpent's head at the base." ~From Wikipedia.
