Thanks All,

Aram : I felt like still a little boy when standing there - not as massive 
or bulky as a US viewer would expect them to be - we?ve seen higher, larger, 
etc. And yet, there for thousands of years, and hand made ?

On another plane; they are harder to shoot than anything else. They are by 
themselves nearly perfect geometries, but take a lens and four or five 
pyramids and suddenly, the parallels ? the verticals ? that?s why this one 
is a mid-range 15 or so shots pano

Douglas : The crowds were only starting to gather after the rain - I said 
it, we were lucky - the camel and mehari is the cherry on, wait, at the 
bottom ;-)
