Our tour guide said he had found these rock carvings himself. They were situated in the vicinity of this fantastic rock formation (and I'm working very late tonight so am pretty sure I won't be able to catch up with commenting!):

Nikon D800 ,Nikkor AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8G ED
1/500s f/6.3 at 32.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
