## Additional wide hero options

- `hero-ararat.jpg` — 2200×1467, atmospheric sunset view toward Mount Ararat from Armenia, Gabriele Niek.

Excellent wide composition with empty warm sky and a dark foreground for a photography portfolio hero. Source location is Armenia. Mount Ararat itself is in Turkey; label as “Արարատի տեսարանը” or “Արարատ՝ Հայաստանից” rather than stating the mountain is located in Armenia.
