Nicely done!
Awesome pictures !
The 8th one is a real beautiful kodak moment( for lack of a more apt figure of speech!), the 5th one ain't that bad too! ;)
Though I must say the Cairo ones are the best so far, lot more character and very smooth photo editing.
Great.
Was this a holiday? If this is ALSO part of your work, I want that job man!
@Ujjwal & Gauri: Shokran shokran
Nomad: Personally, I think the 5th one makes the others look bland ;-)
These pics make me want to catch the next flight to Egypt!
Not specifically the 5th one ;)
You're STILL there? I want your life!
Starbucks, TS?
@Priya: Damn, and here I thought no.5 was doing all the convincing.
@Absolutely Normal Chaos: YES, still there. And no, you don't want my life.
@Ashtray on a Motorbike: You're almost making me feel guilty. Any particular reason?
What are the old portions of the city like?
@Anil: To put it mildly - majestic.
Wow. So so gorgeous!
