Ah this date looks right
Yeah it's hard to take photos of people, and from your description I understand that it's the same for local photographers.

mhazzaa In reply to doriano [2008-05-14 00:57:26 +0000 UTC]

actually its alot harder for local photographers ... an Egyptian doesn't mind tourists taking pictures be he does not understand at all why would a local is taking a picture of him, its creepy for him.

doriano In reply to mhazzaa [2008-05-14 10:04:26 +0000 UTC]

Interesting! I can see the bit about Egyptians not understanding and so on.
But I found it hard too, once I was nearly punched in the face and on occasions people wanted money.
