Photography is not about cameras, gadgets and gizmos. Photography is about photographers. A camera didn’t make a great picture any more than a typewriter wrote a great novel.

Probably the most recognized statue in the world, and one of the very oldest, the Sphinx sits near the edge of the Giza plateau as it sits near the edge of recorded human history. Conventional archaeology believes the Sphinx dates to the reign of Pharaoh Chephren (Khafre) (Fourth Dynasty, 2558-2532), builder of the Second Pyramid of Gisa, which stands behind it. The head of the Sphinx was carved from a natural hill, the body was excavated from the surrounding stone, and the stone blocks that were removed in that excavation were used in the construction of the Sphinx temple just to the east.
ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS !!! FANTASTIC LEGO!!!!
Very cool capture! I am always amazed with what they do with Legos.
