Traveling Man Joe

What a strange vintage we are. Constantly needing to photograph each thing, each moment. What other species demands to self archive everything? The same information, experiences, places visually captured over and over again. What do we expect to learn from it; from taking a picture of it all? No Coining - All Rights Reserved

Red Pyramid (North Pyramid)

 Red Pyramid
 The narrow 200 foot shaft that led to the inside of the pyramid. 
The corbel-vaulted ceiling of the main chamber. What does a pyramid smell like on the inside? Ammonia. My guide said the smell is a result of people peeing inside the pyramid and the lack of air circulation. Whatever the cause, it made staying inside the pyramid for too long rather uncomfortable.
