suprem palce and stunning perspective..nice shot!

The nubian temples are so beautiful, majestic but not monumental ... to visit them in the middle of the nubian desert was an unforgettable experience for me!
Magnificent photo, Jake!

Botticcelli..thank you so very much....I've been looking through some of my old photographs and found the photographs I took in New York....I've got to organize my photographs a little better...that's not as much fun as taking them....

Merce...my you my dear friend...someday I would like to see in person...they must be so lovely.....maybe when I retire.....

Great composition

Midworlder...thank you very much.....I would like to go back to this same location and try taking several photographs with different settings to see if I could bring out all the minute details....it's very beautiful.......

No cement :) All skilfully piled up. Nice shot, jake!

Riet...thank you so very much...these craftsman were so skilled....it absolutely amazes me how these magnificent structures were crafted so well...every stone and relief are so well done........

ohhh reminds me of the movie the mummy :) very interesting historical photograph Jake! well done my friend!

Urselle, thank you so very much..I'm so glad you liked this photograph...I have always enjoyed visiting the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York...it's much more exciting because they encourage you to photograph the permanent exhibits....

Great shot of history ... I love your recent shots.

Martijn..thank you so very much for you wonderful comments.....We have not been out for a few weeks to photograph, due to the horrible weather we have been having....so I've been going through some of my earlier photographs..I'm so glad you like my contributions........

Love the textures and tones of this simple but classic scene...

Geoff...thank you very much....I would like to revisit this same scene with my new camera to see if I could get more details on the reliefs in the stones....

Yessss... really great composition!

Another super photo.
I'll wait here a while, Lara Croft may appear..

Soldier Thank you so very much....I was stunned that they moved each stone of this temple to the MET museum.....compliments of Jackie Kennedy Onassis....

Crowy... had to actually "Google" Lara Croft....I should have known that....you are right.....it does remind you of that...thank you so very much for compliment..

It looks real piece of Art........Nice.............

Irashid....the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York is a very special place....wonderful to visit but you need many days to just walk through...we spend the whole day and only got through two wings of the first floor and I still felt rushed......thank you so much....

Interesting art...

Great setting, texture and lighting !!

love it

Milibuh..thank you so much..this is a most wonderful place to visit....I hope to go back again soon.........

Poulet..thank you so much....I have been working with photoshop and was able to change the lighting on parts of this photograph with that software...I'm hoping to get better with my camera but they won't let you use flash in the museum...

Ichthus1968 ...thank you so very much....I had so much fun the day we visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York..it's a marvelous place.......
