Hail to the Hive!
I think most of us have grown up seeing images of the Sphinx on TV, in books, magazines, video games you name it and it’s an image that really is an iconic symbol that has resonated through the ages. Seeing it up close and personal was something quite special as the pyramids and the sphinx are synonymous with each other and when you are in their presence they all just look right side by side. Pretty awe inspiring and mind boggling when you think how old they all are ( and even more so when you realise the sphinx could wayyyy older)
As I have mentioned in a previous post we were the first to enter the Pyramid compound and took full advantage in getting photos before any crowds arrived.
Even 30 minutes later it would have been impossible to get images like this as there would have been crowds everywhere. I couldn’t be happier with the captures and yet again bkack and white just makes the oerfect medium for these images. They really pop in #monochrome.
The other thing is the scattered cloud cover overhead. This also would not be there an hour or so later as the desert heats up and the Morning moisture dissipates. Early = clouds +no people. Later = lots of leople + no clouds.
So the early photography bird catches the Sphinx 🤣

I think those are cool man. awestruck.
😄 thanks @toohip i appreciate that. I really love these too , was really happy with them
I love the sky in the photos. It stands out fantastically. Well done
Thanks @azamsohrabi . Being there early helped with that. There were zero clouds later
Yes, really, for fantastic pictures, you have to hunt in the moment. I agree completely
Asterix and Cleopatra is the one comic strip and film that I think of. From your photos the Sphinx looks way smaller then I always imagined. Great shots, as always! !invest_vote
It is smaller than you would think but still very impressive. I always loved Asterix in Britain when his potion got into beer barrels and oeople were fighting in oubs with his strength lol
Hahahahaha!! Beer can be a true potion. And there's a lot of words for https://www.dict.cc/?s=Schl%C3%A4gerei in Britain. LOL !invest_vote
