    What great city shadows for the day! I not only love the shadows, but a chance to visit Cairo! Always wanted to go there! Have a great weekend!

    The massive shadows convey the look of size, an immense place. The shadows emphasize the mass. However, the pedestrians are going about their day, so the scene doesn't look so huge but there is a human element to it now. The city is thus alive!

    A sunny day in Cairo gave you lots of shadows to shoot. Im not sure what I expected Cairo to look like, but this isn't it.

    I like it when it´s just ordinary stuff from the city in an ordinary day. It´s just as fascinating as anything else because I have never been there.

    Awesome views of this buzzling city.
    Love the last one with the guys standing right at the side of the road with no care in the word :D

    How nice to see Cairo through your camera's lens! I'm thinking the drivers are a bit crazy there. Am I right?

    My favorite part of this pictures is how far you can see back you can see into the city. This is so different from where I'm from, I could look at these pictures all day.

    Sharp and realistic photos. I do like these. I can hear the sound of traffic and cars as I look these pictures.
    Have a nice Valentine´s Day, BLOGitse ^_^.

    As you notice I deleted my earlier comments.
    I'm sorry to open my frustration here.
    Even if everything I said was true, I don't need to write that all here.

    Please don't hate me because of my mistake...

    I apologize.
