Description

Physical Description:

The outer walls of Karanah Castle in Jordan. The desert ground makes up the entire foreground with the horizon line almost reaching the half-point of the photograph. Just below the horizon is the base of the structure. The castle itself is a rectangular brick wall with three rounded pillars built into it, two at the corners and one in the center. The sky above it is clear and cloudless.
