Walking to Tahrir square the day after the resignation of Hosni Mubarak, the energy was alive, invigorating, only getting more visceral as we moved deeper into the square...
Children are lifted onto tanks to pose for photographs
Many people carry brooms and dustpans, volunteering to clean the streets
There is a crowd silently taking pictures of the burnt NDP headquarters
Ibrahim and Mahmoud follow us for a time, posing for the camera
Mahmoud
The crowd starts to thicken
Volunteers make a human chain to protect the freshly painted curbs
Little children sit atop their father's shoulders carrying baby flags
The youth dance toward the crowd
"Sorry for the disturbance, we build Egypt"
The water bearer
Osama and the creepy short middle-aged man
Ibrahim
I never got her name
Awesome photos, even with me not in them. :)
