Panoramic view of Giza pyramid complex. The first three pyramids are called queens pyramid and are part of the funerary complex of the Mykerinos pyramid. Mykerinos is the smallest pyramid of giza (63 m). Behind Mykerinos stands Khephren. Khephren was the father of Mykerinos. We can see at the top the original coating that covered all pyramids in the past. Khephren bigger than mykerinos (143,5 m). The third pyramid is Kheops, also called great pyramid of Giza. Kheops was the grand-father of Mykerinos (146,6 m). Kheops pyramid has been built 4500 years ago.

Vue panoramique sur le plateau de Gizeh. Les trois premières pyramides sont appelées pyramides des reines et font parties du complexe funéraire de la pyramide de Mykérinos. Mykérinos est la plus petite des trois pyramides de Gizeh (63 m). Derrière Mykérinos se tient Khephren. Khephren était le père de Mykérinos. On peut voir au sommet le revêtement d'origine qui couvrait toutes les pyramides dans le passé. Khephren est plus grande que Mykérinos (143,5 m). La troisième pyramide est celle de Khéops, aussi appelée grande pyramide de Gizeh. Khéops était le grand père de Mykérinos (146,6 m). La pyramide de Khéops a été construite il y a 4500 ans.
I took some pictures after work tonight. This one is the Louvre's pyramid. I didn't have any tripod with me so I had to improvise! I also forgot to switch back from JPEG to RAW and therefore the quality is not as good as I would like it to be. I will go back there with more gears in the next few days. Feel free to tell me what you think!

La Pyramide du Louvre est une pyramide constituée de verre et de métal, située au milieu de la cour Napoléon du musée du Louvre à Paris, où se situe le hall d’accueil.
Commandée par le président de la République François Mitterrand en 1983, la pyramide a été conçue par l'architecte sino-américain Ieoh Ming Pei. La structure, qui a été entièrement construite en métal, s'élève à 21,64 mètres sur une base carrée de 35,42 mètres de côté. La pyramide est composée de 603 losanges et 70 triangles en verre. Elle a été inaugurée le 30 mars 1989 et ouverte au public le 1er avril 19891. Elle est la première grande construction à avoir été réalisée en verre feuilleté
There is a lush roundabout covered with Pyramidal orchids (Anacamptis pyramidalis) that the council seems to have only partially mown.

Surrounded by an electric fence, a nearby sign also clearly states:
"PRIVATE PROPERTY - TRESPASSERS WILL BE PROSECUTED - CLIMBING ON THE PYRAMID STRICTLY PROHIBITED.
Technically then, this is trespassing, however I did not notice this sign until I was leaving, and I thought the fence was to keep the rabbits out :(
Anyway, this is the fourth and final in a series of shots that I had planned to take over my Easter visit to Girraween.

This is a 16 minute exposure that was originally intended to be 30 minutes, but was terminated early due to a bunch of dirty clouds rolling in :(
Foreground is light painted (badly).

is the second-tallest and second-largest of the Ancient Egyptian Pyramids of Giza and the tomb of the Fourth-Dynasty pharaoh Khafre (Chefren), who ruled from c. 2558 to 2532 BC.
The Great Sphinx of Giza is a limestone statue of a reclining sphinx, a mythical creature with the body of a lion and the head of a human. Facing directly from West to East, it stands on the Giza Plateau on the west bank of the Nile in Giza, Egypt. The face of the Sphinx is generally believed to represent the pharaoh Khafre.
The main courtyard of the Louvre museum shows since 1989 one large and three smaller pyramids.
At night the pyramids cast a beautiful reflection on the surrounding water.
The Giza Pyramids, built to endure an eternity, how the Pyramids at Giza were built is one of Egypt's biggest mysteries, the ancient engineering feats at Giza were so impressive that even today scientists can't be sure how the pyramids were built.
The pyramids of Giza were royal tombs built for three different pharaohs. The monumental tombs are relics of Egypt's Old Kingdom era and were constructed some 4,500 years ago, it is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and was the tallest man-made structure in the world.
Pyramids were built for religious purposes. The Egyptians were one of the first civilizations to believe in an afterlife. They believed that a second self called the 'ka' lived within every human being. When the physical body expired, the 'ka' enjoyed eternal life.
See the pyramid made of leaves
Blowing gently in the breeze
See it sway, see it rise
Trying to touch the passing skies
That floats above the pyramid, now seen
Rising tall and coloured green

Never thought that Pyramid Lake would have such amazing diversity of wildlife and landscape. It felt like the ocean or perhaps a dead sea.
The clouds were racing across the sky this particular morning at Pyramid Lake in Jasper. Thus, I put on a 10-stop filter and took a long exposure and really liked the effect. Join us this coming Sept on our Canadian Rockies Photo Tour:

19e Pyramide de chaussures organisée samedi dernier par Handicap International pour que cesse le scandale des mines et des bombes à sous-munitions.
Les mines antipersonnel font encore une victime toutes les deux heures dans le monde ! Handicap International accompagne les victimes, démine les terres et prévient les accidents. L’association se mobilise également contre les restes explosifs de guerre (dont les bombes à sous-munitions) et leur usage en zones peuplées.

This wonder was erected by a broken hearted Queen Victoria in 1862 following the death of Prince Albert at age 42 the previous year. It sits on a picturesque hillside overlooking Balmoral Castle.
Victoria was Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland from 20 June 1837 until her death on 22 January 1901.
The Bent Pyramid at Dashur, built for Snefru, on a hazy winter morning. The locally quarried masonry from which most of the monument is built is exposed at its crumbling base, with higher-quality imported limestone for the external sheathing. An unusual amount of this sheathing layer is still intact, in part due to Dashur's remote location. In contrast, the pyramids at Giza were largely stripped of their sheathing materials for reuse in Medieval and later buildings in Cairo.

Serpentine Pavilion 2016. Every year an architect is selected to create a summer pavilion for the Serpentine Gallery in Kensington Gardens, London. This year's pavilion, constructed from hollow fibreglass blocks is the work of Danish architect, Bjarke Ingels.
Ball's Pyramid is a remnant of a shield volcano and caldera that formed about 7 million years ago. It's 20 Km (12 miles) southeast of Lord Howe Island in the Pacific Ocean. Standing 562 metres (1,844 ft) high, it the tallest volcanic stack in the world and makes an impressive sight from the plane windows on approach to Lord Howe Island. Even from 20 Km it's quite a sight.
