One afternoon in Luxor, I watched the sunset on the Nile from my stateroom balcony. The serenity of the Nile was amazing. When K’lee and Dale’s suggested the four elements (earth, air, water, fire) as the theme of this week’s challenge, it struck me that each element was captured in these scenes of feluccas catching the wind at the end of a day. The mountainous landscape in the background is the location of the Valley of Kings and the Valley of Queens. From earth to earth, they say.
