Good morning and thank you, Philippe, for the series. The entire series, I
mean, not just this morning’s gems, though they’re very nice indeed. I had no
good clear view of the day to day life in Egypt nor the scale of things over
there. I realize that your photos are only a tiny view of a much larger canvas,
but thanks for opening things up slightly for me. It never occurred to me what
the first pyramids may have looked like as the construction design evolved or
how big the sculptures were.
Best regards,
Peter S.
