Hello again my friends.

Now I'm back from Egypt - such a fantastic country with warm weather and interesting history.

But I missed you all and I'm happy to be back here and I hope you are interested whan I saw during my holidays.
After looking at my shots I decided to show this one today - hoping you all are relaxed 1 day before Christmas. Keep cool, be relaxed and enjoy the Christmas-days ...

Welcome back! Did you had a great time in Egypt?
A well known scene, well captured and presented. A perfect sharp shot, excellent handling of light and shaddows. The first one for your TL Egypt portfolio. Are you going to add a travel loge?

Hello Sabine,

The endurance of donkey is unmachted and the variety of this transport animal around the globe is remarkable. Beautifully taken image, excellent composition and an innovative motif. Well done.

Many thanks for sharing this shot.

Hi Wishnu & Seasons Greetings!

A good reminder that Mary & Joseph did not have a Rolls Royce, or even a Ford or Mazda! An apt upload for Christmas. Tfs!

HA!! Good one Sabine. But NO, this won't be Joseph, he was walking by the donkey and Mary was riding it!!
Good shot.
And welcome back from your travelling - I look forward to seeing more of your photos

You must have done a great trip! Welcome back :) This is an appropriated picture for this time of year, if it wasn't of his glasses, we could have believed it was taken many thousand years ago :)! Have great Holidays!

Hi Sabine, This is a classic. The donkey looks too weak and tired to take such a man on its back. That walking stick is likely a hitting stick for slow animals too. This is timeless. Only thing i don't like is the man's dress sense! TFS. Murray.

wonderful
