 Khafre Pyramid Egypt Seshemnefer tomb statue infra red sunburst film B&W photo just off the main road climbing up between the Sphinx to the Great Pyramid of Khufu or Cheops which is the largest of the Gizah site monuments and the first of the really truly huge constructions dating around 2500BC and still now one of the Wonders of the World. Standing 137m high, was 140m originally, was 230m on each size and probably was built using over 2 million blocks of stone averaging 2.5 tons although today it looks smaller than nearby Khafre Pyramid which higher on the Giza plateau. This porticoed tomb of Seshem-Nefer, Overseer of the House of Life and Keep of the King’s Secrets, one of the largest of the private tombs at Giza, has been restored in recent years and is now open to the public although when this photo was taken in 2002 it was closed. It was taken using a Nikon FM manual camera, 28mm f2.8 Nikkor or Tokina SD 28-70mm f3.5lens with a Red filter, rated at 200ASA and processed in Aculux for 14 mins.
