This collection of photographs captures the sights of Egypt from the air and aims to display the concentration of life, both of the present day and of the past lives extending back to the birth of civilization. The pictures feature the great sights of Egypt including the temples and tombs of the pharoahs, the desert monasteries of the early Christians, and the mosques and capitals of caliphs and sultans, kheldives, kings and presidents. There are also images of natural wonders such as the mountains of Sinai, the Red Sea, the Nile and the desert.
