About On our hot summer days, it wouldn't be better than to find those vendors walking around the streets selling our icy cold famous Egyptian refreshment made out of Liquorice Root.
The earliest signs of the use of liquorice was at the Egyptians. Historically, Archeologists have discovered large amounts of dried liquorice roots in the 3000 years old gravetomb of farao Toetanchamon. The ancient Greeks and Romans also knew about the wholesome effects of the liquorice root extracts. They used it as a medicine against coughing and pain in the throat.
Liquorice is a demulcent, and has a soothing and coating agent in the digestive and urinary tracts. It is also an expectorant, and is useful for treating bronchitis and catarrh build up. Liquorice also has antiviral properties and is a mild laxative.
Nowadays, the Liquorice root drink (which is a popular dirnk in Egypt), costs about 50 piasters (P.T.), 1 $ = 6.2 eyptian pounds (L.E.), and 1 L.E.= 100 P.T., so, you can find that it's so cheap and in the hands of all people.

Hi Khaled, Excellent expression in this photo. The close up composition limits itself to the essential aspects, leaving the peripheral information for the viewer to fill in. That creates alot of tension in this shot. The DOF may be a tad sallow, but it does serve a purpose singling out the expression of the vendor in the crowd in the background. Good shot, and very well composed!

I appreciate the time you took to describe this image, very intersting! The Dutch consume alot of Liquorice these days, but I was unaware of its history...

Cheers,

Hugo

Very nice Capture, colors and DOF.
I'm not a fan of this drink "3ri elsous" i don't mind eating the liquorice, but not drink it.
You truly show images of Egypt that is really nice.
keep it up
