I am with my wife and daughter on a working vacation…of sorts. Marco Ryan of Focus for Humanity fame, is hosting our family here in the wonderful land of the pharaohs. Marco and I are doing a “recce” as he says, for a possible Egypt photo tour and workshop. There certainly is no dearth of photo opportunities here. The people are photogenic, the buildings are ancient and beautiful and the culture rich.
Today we became true tourist and went off to the pyramids. It reminded me of the Taj Mahal in that there were tourist literally crawling over each other for a quick snap of the Sphinx. But, it was one of those places you check off your list to see. Not much culture (unless you like hawkers and tourist) but worth seeing.
People were literally crawling over each other to shoot a picture of the Sphinx.
Trying to get just a clean snap of the Sphinx without people was a challenge.
But with the help of the clone tool and a high vantage point, anything is possible.
I’ll check in when I can, but honestly, this is mainly family time. So bear with me, I’ll post when I have the inkling. Until then, go read a good blog and for heaven’s sake; get out and take a picture!

I shoot for mostly NGOs and nonprofits. I photograph images of the unknown, the forgotten and the helpless. These are often the stories that most people overlook.
