The scene above includes a rare image capture by the first live Webcam to view the Pyramids at Giza. Featured in this shot is a ‘Blue Moon‘ setting at sundown. The project was called PyramidCam and ran from 2003 until 2010. Two cameras ran 24 hours continuously capturing a hi-res image every 30 seconds day and night. The project was initiated by Jim Sorenson (Cairo) and Vance Kosig (LA) with the kind support and encourage of Rami Siag (Siag Hotels and Travel). I will post many pyramid images on the site in the coming days along with the story of what it took to put the PyramidCam operation together and make it work 24/7 over those 7 years.

I’m bringing back a lot old website content from 35 years in Egypt:  Establishing foreign petroleum and gas exploration and production companies, inventing and operating the Egypt Foreign Currency Clearing System under the Central Bank of Egypt, setting up the first modern reprographics facility in the Middle East, adventures with the Goering Yacht Carin II in the Red Sea, Egypt deep desert exploration, Ham Radio as SU9AM, recovery of the Breitling Orbiter III, introducing GPS and GPS vehicle location and tracking to the military and police, PyramidCam, setting up U.S. petroleum and gas concessions in Syria and Lebanon, managing the oil concession given to Egypt’s most famous spy by Sadat and much more.
