A long exposure picture of the Kokino megalithic observatory is seen during summer solstice celebration in Kumanovo June 21, 2013. The 3,800 years old observatory was discovered in 2001 in the north-western town of Kumanovo 70 km (43 miles) north from capital Skopje and is ranked as the fourth oldest observatory in the world after Egypt's Abu Simbel, Britain's Stonehenge and Cambodia's Angkor Wat according to NASA.

General View of Monuments Carved into Bedrock with Photographer's Dahabieh. Abu Simbel, 1851-1852
General View of Monuments Carved into Bedrock with Photographer's Dahabieh. Abu Simbel, 1851-1852. Teynard, a civil engineer, may have learned photography for his 1851-52 tour of Egypt, which he undertook "to study certain questions of personal interest." In 1858 he published his photographic record of ancient sites, the most comprehensive to date, as a book of salted paper prints. Teynard traveled by dahabieh, a small passenger boat visible in this image. He asked his readers to grant some indulgence for photographers carrying out such painstaking work in an arduous locale like Egypt. "A nomad, his working method is always provisional, and the delicate preparations for his photography must be carried out on a small sailing boat rocking in the water, or under a tent standing in the midst of the desert."
