When I look back on my time in Egypt, the Nile was a central character in my experience. And particularly my memories of the beautiful Egyptian feluccas gliding on the waters of the Nile is still as vivid as this print from the banks of the river in Aswan. And in a way, it makes…
This Egyptian Sunrise was unforgettably beautiful. The sky until this moment had been an ever-changing kaleidoscope of colors, rich blues and pinks that heralded the appearance of the sun on the distant desert horizon. And as we drifted on the breezes in our hot air balloon it seemed as if the skies were putting on…
On the day we left Luxor, we got an early start to arrive at Karnak Temple just as it opened. The morning light on those ancient Egyptian ruins was simply golden and dazzling. The light of a new day is such a stark contrast with the twilight of this ancient architecture. By the time we…
This golden Egypt print is courtesy of a ridiculously early bus to Abu Simbel. I would love to say that’s just how dedicated I am to catching the golden light of morning, but it’s really down to being how one gets to Abu Simbel from Aswan by road. For security concerns, the cars and buses…
It’s been so long since I visited the Egyptian ruins on the Island of “Philae” that I’m honestly not sure if I knew then that they had connections to ancient Rome or not? I put Philae in quotes because the real sacred island of Philae rests beneath the waters of Lake Aswan today. When the…
If you had asked me before leaving for Egypt, I surely would have expected that seeing the pyramids or the ancient Egyptian temples would be the highlight of my trip. Instead it was the experience of flying in hot air balloons at dawn through the Egyptian skies was the moment I’ll never forget. I think…
It is funny that when I look at this photo of the Luxor ruins, I don’t think of the modern Egyptian city that surrounds it. On that first afternoon in Luxor when I saw it bathed in the golden light of the afternoon sun, it felt utterly separate from the city around it. Almost as…
The ancient Egyptian ruins at Abu Simbel are notable for many reasons. In antiquity, the massive temple you see in this black and white print was carved from a solid mountain to honor the pharaoh, Ramses The Great. Ramses II reigned for over 60 years, a period in which he built temples and cities on…
I will never forget visiting the Egyptian Village of Daraw seen in this print. Understandably, much of our visit through Egypt was crisscrossing the paths of so many tourists before us. It’s a taste of Egyptian life, but not the same as seeing a city relatively unaffected by the tourist trade. On our journey on…
Camping on the banks of the Nile in a traditional Egyptian Sailboat, the Felucca seen in this print, was an amazing experience. It afforded the chance to really soak in the raw natural beauty of the Egyptian landscape. I still look at this print based on my last Nile sunset and it feels like something…
One of the most unforgettable mornings I have spent was the one where I got an Egypt aerial view as seen in this print. It was my first experience in a hot air balloon and also a real eye opening view of the Egyptian landscape. The Egyptian landscape is notoriously harsh and arid. The very…
It was a long dark ride to see Abu Simbel, one of the ancient temples built to honor Ramses The Great. It’s worth noting that of all the pharaohs of Egypt, Ramses II was the only one to be styled The Great. And in his nearly seven decade rule, he certainly left behind a monumental…
It’s mind boggling how much truly ancient history stands on the streets of modern Egypt. Never mind the treasures that may still lie beneath the desert sands waiting to be discovered. By the time we reached Luxor, we had seen so many Egyptian temples and still had more to come. Running low on time, I…
I have it on decent authority that the statue seen here in the ruins of Karnak Temple represented none other than King Tut, also known as Pharaoh Tutankhamun. I hate to admit for years that I couldn’t recall that detail about this golden statue I saw early one morning during my Egyptian adventure. We were…
I arrived in Egypt in the dead of night. Between the dark night and my tired eyes, the drive into Cairo from the airport was simply a blur. But I quickly became familiar with the mosque minarets during the call to prayer on my first morning in the city. After that, they became a ubiquitous…
I was amazed at just how zen I found the experience of flying in a hot air balloon to be. I was definitely pushing beyond my the boundaries of my comfort zone when I made plans for the hot air balloon flight featured in this vibrant print. I find that travel typically involves doing things…
Little did I know before visiting the ancient Egyptian Karnak Temple that there are multiple types of sphinxes. Unless you study ancient Egyptian art, you may not know that the Great Sphinx at Giza, the one we all know so well, is just one of three types of Egyptian sphinxes. Those with the head of…
Early on the last morning that we were camped on the banks of the ancient river Nile, I did my best to creep quietly off the boat just before the sun rose. I had high hopes for a pretty dawn on the nile, and as this print shows, those hopes were met. I still remember…
For me this print of hot air balloons in flight over the Valley of The Kings in Egypt will always illustrate the magic of travel. For me, traveling is about stepping outside of the safe harbor of every day life. It’s about trying new things. When I set off for Egypt, I had no plans…
When I visited Egypt, getting to Abu Simbel from Aswan required joining an early morning convoy of cars and buses. This was an Egyptian safety precaution for those visiting the ancient temple to Ramses The Great because of its proximity to Sudan. On that long morning bus ride as I tried fitfully to sleep, I…
I have no real explanation for how I had this Sahara Desert print in my mind’s eye well before I got to Egypt. There was just no way I should have been able to envision this view but I saw this image well before I found myself sitting on the back of a camel looking…
