These are photographs I made while touring Egypt in 2010. I did tour all the ancient sites, and have photographs of those, but so does everyone else who has ever been to Egypt.
What's unique about the time I was in Egypt is that it was right at the end of the time that Hosni Mubarak was President, in fact, I was in Cairo on November 28th, the date of the last election before the Egyptian Revolution in early 2011.
The poverty is real, so are the people, Egyptians are some of the most accepting and genuine people I have ever met.
