Giza plateau pyramids
A totally amazing shot, never ever saw the sky this blue, but it does add drama to the shot.
Menkaure Pyramid, special effects
the background definitely adds glamour to this pyramid shot. Joanot has created great shots.

great shot but gives no indication of the scale of these, mounted in their new positions on the edge of lake Nasser.

pyramid at dusk
Had to put this in, an amazing picture, the real sky is never this blue, too much pollution.
temple computer generated
Hard to imagine when doing the tours that the temples were once painted. Often only the tiniest traces of paint can be seen high in the celings.
stone sarcophagus
Actually saw this in museum in Canberra in January 08, amazing how they worked the stone on the inside and outside.

Learning 2.0
Currently on a steep learning curve. Finding out so much that is available on the web apart from the travel sites and banking which is what I mostly use the internet for. Had a bit of trouble trying to get the blog. forgot the step about the gmail. Intend to use the learning experience to put together something on Egypt and bellydancing my two passions of the moment. Couldn't think of anything library related yet. My next step is to learn how to post photos and videos to my site.
