Parisdise - A Holga in Egypt

Come see the crumbling blocks of timeless, weathered stones in the desert as seen through the slightly different, slightly imperfect, but always unpredictable eyes of that wonderfully simple piece of photographic machinery called the Holga. Our only involvement? We pointed the Holga in approximately the right direction and pressed the shutter release. The rest was left to the gods.

An attempted panorama of the pyramids at Giza. That is our excellent tour guide, Mostafa (with the vest), and the Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Mycerinus in the faded distance. Taken from this picturesque bluff, the pyramids appeared to be situated far away from the urban reaches of Giza; they were not.
