Egypt’s Ancient Beauty through Photographs

Imagine you’re embarking on an adventure as you look at the photos from Egypt! Catch a glimpse of the Pyramids, the Great Sphinx, the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut, The Philae Temple, and more!

In a period of 8 days, I was able to not only walk in the lands of the pharaohs and Queen Nefertiti, but capture the beauty of its existing presence. Egypt is an amazing country with so much history that it is impossible to see it all at once.
