shadow across time
giza (khufu)
the photographer's shadow overlays the ruins of a town that once housed the builders of the great pyramids
pyramid scale
giza (khufu)
these rocks are not as big as those rocks
a long, old story about triangles, squares and rectangles
giza (khafre)
a queens rope
giza (one of the menkaure queen pryamids)
a rope, meant to keep people from traversing between two of the smaller queen pyramids
2 kings 3 queens
giza
the 2nd 2 largest of the pyramids of giza (for the pharaohs) and 3 smaller ones for the queens (L to R: khafre, menkaure, 3 of his queens)
a pyramid, a tool shed, and a bike rack -- companions that withstood the test of time
giza
not your typical pyramid picture i like this one because you usually don't see tool sheds and bike racks in front of the pyramids... sorry if i've spoiled anyone's view of an unblemished egypt.

giza
the perspective of a 30 centimeter tall bike rack dwarfing the 136 meter tall khafre
the bike rack vs the pyramid
giza
the battle is set for supremacy
who can stand the test of time?
who can stand up a bike? and make it secure?
who cares?
if a bike is unlocked in the desert, but there's no one around to steal it, is it safe?
if it falls over, does it make a sound?
