That third picture is just amazing. I used to love it if a computer game had such a sun glare molded into it's engine (so that it showed a sun glare if you were walking around). You also see them in real life but almost never as clear as this on a picture. Also the mountain in the background with the little puff of smoke around it is looking like it came straight out of a Tolkien book. Just mesmerized by these pictures. Must have been really impressive to be walking around there! Put it on my bucket list to visit!
But just like you i also hate stairs with a passion. but for this one i will make an exception and walk all the way to the top with a smile on my face haha
