Stone carvings depicting writing, pharaohs and Egyptian gods inside Luxor Temple in Egypt.
Hieroglyphs are mysterious, even to this day, can we be certain that they have really been deciphered perfectly? The pharaohs are represented bizarrely, with birds' heads and strange and disproportionate hats. So cool to see.

Memories from traveling in India. I've always wanted to go and see the Taj Mahal and so while renewing my Bangladeshi visa in India, I went to Agra to full-fill my ambition. I was stunned by the beauty of this monument... Enjoy.

Sunset sighting over Melbourne city. This was shot from St Kilda, a nice place to spend some time on the beach watching the sun slowly going down while the city burn of saturated colours. It is good to drink wine on the beach during summertime.

This magical sunset was taken in the Antarctic Peninsula in the Charlotte Channel. The light in Antarctica is so beautiful! We were so lucky to have the privilege of visiting during our filming trip for our documentary, The Map to Paradise.

Golden Dunes


Yet next view from Egypt. Pretty amazing panorama of the golden dunes of the Nile, nearby Aswan. Shot from small sailing boat while traveling to small and authentic Nubian village. Still hot, though winter day with even some nice cloud formations making the final view much more interesting

Enjoy it!

My visit to the Arts home of MAPOLY institution, Ogun state, Nigeria made the story of Pottery having a long history in Africa and making it one of the oldest arts known to me.
Usually, pots are made by women. Though cheap and functional, African pots are known for it utility with great beauty. The procedure for making pots vary within the different communities.

This is the interior of the Great Mosque of Muhammad Ali Pasha located in the Citadel of Cairo in Egypt. This emblematic building of the city was built from 1830 to 1848 and is largely inspired by traditional Ottoman architecture.

@czechglobalhosts has been amazing with the continent contests, I love it and am on with my entry, am just somehow timid to present my shot, perhaps because I find works here so competitive
