Strange … This morning I woke up with visions from an unusual scene … This could only be a dream … A stallion brown as the earth, mighty as the clouds on a night of thunder and gentle as the soft breeze on a sunny beach day … I followed him to a long mountain range so far away … Thought to myself that with him I would like to stay – Cairo, Egypt 6/1/2014 Photo & Text by @laura_eltantawy / VII Photo Mentor. This is my last post this week. Thanks a lot to the Burn team for having me and to the audience here for tuning in. It’s been my pleasure. If you would like to keep up with me, pls follow my personal #instagram account for more of my photographic thoughts and reflections. Have a great 2014. #cairo #egypt #middleeast #northafrica #horse #nature #abstract #artistic #instagood #instamood #photography #مصر @viiphoto @everydayafrica
