This image presents a wide view of the Urubamba River valley, located in the vicinity of Machupicchu Pueblo (Aguas Calientes), Peru. The foreground is dominated by a dark, flowing river, characterized by visible ripples and patches of white foam across its surface. The left riverbank consists of rocks and turbulent whitewater, leading to dense green foliage that covers the lower slopes of a steep, brown-earthed mountain. The upper portions of this mountain are enveloped in low-lying clouds and mist. The right riverbank features a significant accumulation of rocks and debris, indicative of a landslide or extensive erosion, at the base of an opposing mountain. This right mountain face exhibits large areas of exposed gray rock and sparse brown vegetation, with its summit also obscured by clouds. A thin strip of green vegetation lines the immediate edges of the river. The sky is uniformly overcast with heavy gray clouds, casting a diffused, flat light over the entire scene. No human figures, animals, or specific actions are discernible within the frame.
