EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases the grandeur and historical significance of the Obelisk of Hatshepsut, located in the Temple of Amun at Karnak, Thebes. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this ancient monument stands as a testament to Egypt's rich cultural heritage. The obelisk itself is an awe-inspiring sight, reaching towards the clear blue sky with its towering presence. Its profile bears witness to centuries gone by, displaying intricate carvings and hieroglyphics that tell stories of tradition and spirituality. Though time has taken its toll on this archaeological treasure, with parts broken and weathered over the years, it still exudes an undeniable sense of power and majesty. This low angle view captures every detail - from the chiseled face to its male likeness - transporting viewers back in time to when it was first erected. Surrounded by ruins that whisper tales from Thebes' glorious past, this photograph offers a glimpse into an ancient civilization that once thrived here. With no people present in the frame, one can truly appreciate the solitude and serenity found within these hallowed grounds. For history enthusiasts or those seeking a deeper understanding of Egypt's remarkable legacy, visiting this iconic landmark is a must. It serves as both a place of worship for traditional Egyptian culture and an international landmark attracting tourists from all corners of the globe. Tuul's photography skillfully
