La pirámide de Micerino (nombre helenizado) o de Menkauraz (según su nombre egipcio) es la menor de las tres célebres pirámides de la necrópolis de la meseta de Guiza. A Menkaura, faraón de la dinastía IV, se le atribuye ordenar construir esta pirámide. Conocida en su época como "La Pirámide Divina" era parte del complejo funerario junto con tres pirámides subsidiarias, un templo funerario, el templo del valle y una calzada procesional que vinculaba ambos templos. mas info

Pyramidal Orchid (Anacamptis pyramidalis) on the roadside verge of Exminster bypass, Devon, England.
A widespread, but local orchid on limestone and chalk, and near the coast, especially on dunes. It's not very common in Devon due to the relative scarcity of calcareous soils, though it may be increasing locally around Exeter/the Exe. I first came across them at this site on the verge of Sannerville Way (the A379) in 2012 when checking the verge after first noticing Southern Marsh-orchids whilst driving past the year before. I've also found Bee Orchids, which also seem to perhaps be increasing locally, here.
See my other Pyramidal Orchid photos.
View from the Giza Pyramids.
I was lucky enough to have this wonderful view from the airplane - and also the right amount of time to take the picture :)

Family portrait from the west, looking back through to Cairo in the distance. A well visited location from which to view and experience these most extraordinary of all human imaginings and endeavours.
To attempt to describe one's feelings on first catching a glimpse of these is to discover that it is indeed possible to be beyond the bounds of the capability of language.
Egyptian pyramids in general:
The Louvre Pyramid (Pyramide du Louvre) is a large glass and metal pyramid, surrounded by three smaller pyramids, in the main courtyard (Cour Napoléon) of the Louvre Palace (Palais du Louvre) in Paris. The large pyramid serves as the main entrance to the Louvre Museum. Completed in 1989,it has become a landmark of the city of Paris.
For the public, these falls are most easily seen from the train connecting Vancouver to Jasper and are difficult to see otherwise. After announcements, the train slows down so that people can get a glimpse (and a good photo if ready with their camera). The creek is said to be glacial in origin and was also called Glacier Creek.

Downtown aglow in sunrise through a Muttart Conservatory glass pyramid. There are 4 pyramids that hold plants in various biospheres here. They are all closed for renovations this year. I use to pay to go in and experience humidity occasionally.
Lucky plants!

Found this gem near Jasper National Park in Canada. Patricia lake and Pyramid Island. Got up early to see if I get lucky to get good light over sunrise. What a morning, great time to roll through the lights and sun. Enjoy!!

Taken at Pyramid Lake in Jasper National Park in Alberta, Canada. I will have limited internet access for the next six weeks, so I probably won't be able to respond to comments as I would like to.

I've just spent a few hours going back through the hard drives and looking at some images I missed from last year. Here are a few of the 40 odd images that I hope to upload in due time.
One from a local meadow.
Pyramidal orchid - Anacamptis pyramidalis, growing beside the path in the Millennium Wood, Castle Camps.
Water Tank was once used for steam locomotives the tracks were removed around 1963. Anaho island with its distinctive pyramid shape can be seen on east side of the lake, the lake is on the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe Reservation. Hasselblad 501C ,Carl Zeiss CF f / 2.8 80mm , Ilford FP4 Plus

Pyramid Lake is an amazing place. Not only is the lake itself beautiful, but the area is surrounded by beautiful mountains, fantastic ancient tufas, and other beautiful and interesting features. Pyramid Lake is about the size of Lake Tahoe, yet during the ice age Lake Lahontan, of which this is the last remnant, was about 50 times larger. So basically, northwestern Nevada was one big inland sea with several islands consisting of dozens of mountain ranges. Hard to imagine now.
I suffered a bit for this one. I waded out into the shallow water and despite my best efforts the water soon flowed over the tops of my rubber boots, which made the chilly morning more interesting. :-) But, I really wanted that rock in the foreground. My next piece of photo gear is going to be a decent set of waders.
