Pyramids Sound & Light, a photo from Giza, Delta

Photographer's Note

Having gone to this show a few times, I realized that there aren't many times when the lighting is perfect for a picture....often the Sphinx is so brightly lit that it is blown away if you want any other images/color to show. I had to constrain myself to 'shooting' only when there was more even lighting.
Having used both 35 mm and digital at this show, I found that I got better results with digital, as I didn't drag along a tripod for longer exposures. This is hand-held! (No breathing...)

Its a good result for a hand heald shot but still; it isn't entirely sharp. Especially the sphinx in the back is very blurry.

Tripods are really indispensable for this type of shot.

Yes, it's indispensable a tripod for take thats shots and it's better when the sky is not so dark, but in all case, the composition is good and I'm sure that if you have a tripod you can make this picture perfect.
