Thank you, Gregory. It was a wonderful trip to visit a culture so different from any I had visited before. I was fortunate to have 3 women guides who taught me so much.

Thank you, Randy. The ancient architects crafted their buildings with respect to the sun... so you just have to be there at the right time.

Mary, I made this photograph my selection for discussion today in the Minimalism Group, because I really enjoy discovering rhythm in architecture, and you have captured this repeating rhythm so wonderfully in the light and shadow patterns here. Nicely discovered and composed! Voted

Thank you, Cheri. It is an honor to have one of the first photos submitted to be selected for discussion. Much of the credit goes to the ancient Egyptians who built their architecture with the patterns that capture light and shadow.
