I think it's about time for another ME/NA picture thread. Please share pretty (or not so pretty) pictures of the ME/NA. These can be your own pictures, or pictures you've found online, in magazines, or anywhere else a pictures of the ME/NA might show up.

Also, please exercise caution when posting pictures that have you/your SO in it. Pictures can (and have) been taken and used offsite for malicious purposes.

Great idea, rahma! I don't know if I've posted this one before, but I love it because it's so eerie. (I wasn't intending for it to come out blurry, but I think that's what makes it so cool!)

These are some of my pictures from Cairo, December 2003/January 2004:

egypt006.jpg

In Khan Khalili, the tourist marketplace. A man carrying bread.

egypt017.jpg

Kitty in Khan Khalili. Kitties are all over Cairo, and I wanted to huggle them all, even the mangy dirty ones (after I had taken them home and given them a bath, if my husband had let me, lol)

egypt149.jpg

The pyramids at Giza. I think most people have the impression that they're off in the middle of the desert, and you have to ride camels to get to them, but Giza (suburb/twin city of Cairo) butts up right next to them. Giza is the place we stayed the first time I was in Cairo, 2 miles from the pyramids. I love it and miss it.

egypt110.jpg

Minaret at Al Azhar, beautiful masjid.

Wow this brings back so many memories! I remember walking down these steps when I was in Jordan a few times a week to get bread from the bakery below. :( I miss Jordan.

Fabulous photos !! :thumbs:

The Middle East is really a photographer's dream -- everywhere you look, there is a Kodak moment waiting to be snapped. And the light is fantastic.

Jenn your "blur" photo is cool. It reminds me of one I have where my camera did a similar thing... let me try to dig it up.

I really love seeing all these places I hope to visit one day ! Keep 'em coming !!
