Islands in the water near the temple of Abu Simbel in Egypt

Scene just next to the temple of Abu Simbel, located in the southern part of Egypt, in the region of Nubia. Abu Simbel is an engineering marvel, which was moved from its lower position since it was going to be submerged by the rising water caused by the construction of a mega dam. Right next to the temple, there is this landscape where the water causes these small islands and a great landscape.
