About It is the one and only Wonder which does not require a description by early historians and poets.

It is the one and only Wonder that does not need speculations concerning its appearance, size, and shape.

It is the oldest, yet it is the only surviving of the Seven Ancient Wonders.

It is the Great Pyramid of Giza.

When it was built, it was 145.75 m (481 ft) high. Over the years, it lost 10 m (30 ft) off its top. It ranked as the tallest structure on Earth for more than 43 centuries, only to be surpassed in height in the nineteenth century AD.

Camera settings: 1/640 sec - f/6.3 - ISO 200 - FL 105mm.

Hi Khaled,
this picture is really beautiful, I have a weakness for the ancient monuments of Egypt. I like the emerging majestic silhouettes of the pyramids in the haze and smog of the city and even today they are still dominating the surroundings; what a sight!!! Well done

Regards, Christian

Thanx Abid,
Though D100 is a very good camera yet actually if I'm going to buy a camera these days I'll go for the D200.
Take care,
Khaled.

Well composed shot of the city and pyramid in the background. The fog adds a sense of mystery.

This is a fabulous atmospheric composition of the Great Pyramid my dear Khaled, I love the early morning mistiness of it unless that is an early evening one (or even the city's emissions). Whatever has created the misty look has enhanced the shot and increased the wonder. Once again some wonderful additional knowledge in your 'about'. Well done to you my good friend. My very best wishes to you as always.....Ray
