The ever growing Cairo set can be found HERE

No set of photos from Cairo could be complete without...

Re: Sphinx and pyramids

Lovely shots john, nice sky makes these stand out, much better than my efforts when I was there.

Is that sensor dust in the last one or did the camel fart?

Well spotted that man! I tried my best to be careful when changing lenses, but this is what Photoshop is for
