Egyptian carpet.
This photo is taken in a carpet shop in Cairo, photo was not allowed – I didn’t know so I was taking photos – a lot off photos. Until a member from the staff stopped me and demanded that I deleted the photo I just had been taking. Off course I deleted the last one while he was watching, but not the rest. He was satisfied than he left me glad and proud that he had won the battle over that stupid Dane.
PP works none, others than framed and resized.
1/30 sec.
f.5,6
ISO 400
Focal length 61,0 m.m.

So Jens, peeking in Windows in Holand is what you like I did read on TL.. now making secret shots in places where not alowed..
Did you maybe meet people from Holland on your last cruise? These Dutch are terrible and change a nice man in to a naughty boy!
Good shot Jens

Didn't you read the instructions at the gate about photography.
It was al written near the entrance. In Arabic.!!!
Hahaha.
Excellent photo you took.
The Egyptians will be proud to see it.
Cheers, Jan

Hej my Friend,
1st of all I laughed on the story how clever the guard was. :) About the photo: congrats Jens, one of the best of Yours, although You have many high-quality images here. Great colours and outstanding PP-work. Unique image. This isn't plagiarism. :) Cheerz, László

Nice work Jens.
I like it

Hi Jens,

This place sure looks impressive! Beautiful colours & sharpness! I like the 3D effect which yo gave it too! Lucky you had a digital camera and not film, you probably would had to remove the roll of film... Ouch!

Very well done
Constantinos

Merhaba Jens,

I wonder if they were just concerned about the FLASH on the cameras making the carpet age prematurely! Nice catch and way to fool the Dane! HAHAHA!...The photographer MUST GET his shot!!
