et Photography: The sign of peace

Cairo - 20 August 2017: Walking down the streets of Cairo, you will more often than not come across this scene.

A peaceful setting usually found in places where people are; in Arab countries, it is a sign of peace to see pigeons roaming in a place.

Birds are always an exquisiteness brought to any area, with their melodious humming and beautiful figures, they are a graceful addition, especially the ones that are free to roam.

Next time you walk down Cairo streets, stop and feel the peacefulness emanating from the pigeons’ flutters.

Special thanks to Batoul Khalifa for sharing her photo with us.
