Desert sky

Another very busy week, so here is shot from the archives for this week's Skywatch Friday. All the way from 2006, here are some pyramids in Giza, Egypt.
The picture is not perfect, but I think it conveys very well the heat of that day!



As always, once you are done with this post, you can have a look at sky photos from all over the world on the Skywatch Friday website. Have a good week-end everyone!

Straight from the archives: Cairo 2006

I recently realised that, out of 97 posts currently available on this blog (well, 98 with this one), 53 are related to Japan.

In a way, this makes sense:
- it is a beautiful country,
- I currently live in Japan,
- even before moving here, I was coming very often and for fairly long periods.

However, there are many other places I had the opportunity to visit, partly because of my work (conferences, international collaborations, etc.), and partly because it has been over eight years since I left my hometown, including six and a half years living abroad.

For many reasons (mainly work-related), there are many pictures I never got a chance to share.
Over coming weeks (and maybe months), I will try to mix posts with these pictures and posts with new photos.

To start things off, here is a pyramid in Giza, on the outskirts of Cairo, Egypt.



Coming soon: more pyramids, Berlin, Toronto, (and older footage from Japan too).
