Amenemhat III the builder of the Black Pyramid in Dashur with Photoshop lesson أمنمحات الثالث باني الهرم الأسود في دهشور

He was a pharaoh of the Twelfth Dynasty of Egypt. He ruled from c.1860 BC to c.1814 BC.He was regarded as the greatest monarch of the Middle Kingdom. He may have had a long coregency (of 20 years) with his father, Senusret III [ multiple sovereigns or kings of a single state ].
Amenemhet III was handed a peaceful reign, his father Sesostris III had given him a land on good diplomatic terms with her northern neighbours, Nubia firmly under Egypt's control and the power of the Nomarchs finally ended.
The original picture


Towards the end of his reign he instituted a coregency with his successor Amenemhet IV, as recorded in a now damaged rock inscription at Konosso in Nubia, which equates Year 1 of Amenemhet IV to either Year 46, 47 or 48 of his reign. His daughter, Sobekneferu, later succeeded Amenemhat IV, as the last ruler of the 12th Dynasty. Amenemhat III's throne name, Nimaatre, means "Belonging to the Justice of Re."

His Family :-
His father: The pharaoh Sesostris III [the builder of the Sisostris Canal].

His principle wife: was Aat.
His daughters: Neferuptah and her sister, the Pharaoh Sobekneferu (“Beauty of Sobek”).
His son: The Pharaoh Amenemhat IV .


His reign :-
- His long reign of 45 years followed the policies of his predecessors of the 12th Dynasty - economic growth in Egypt was at an all time high, agriculture increased at the Fayum (it was here that Amenemhet III completed a land reclamation scheme probably started by his father, Sesostris III, this scheme was to gain 17,000 acres of farm land from the lake).


-He built his first pyramid at Dahshur "Black Pyramid" but there were construction problems and this was abandoned. Around Year 15 of his reign the king decided to build a new pyramid at Hawara near the Fayum . The pyramid at Dahshur was used as burial ground for several royal women.
His mortuary temple at Hawara, is accompanied by a pyramid and may have been known to Herodotus who praised it as a wonder of the world.
The king's pyramid at Hawara contained some of the most complex security features of any found in Egypt and is perhaps the only one to come close to the sort of tricks Hollywood associates with such structures. Nevertheless, the king's burial was robbed in antiquity.

-Amenemhet III also built temples at the Faiyum to the god Sobek and a temple to the cobra goddess at Maadi near Cairo.

-Mining operations also were concentrated on heavily - inscriptions show that mining in either the quarries of Egypt or in the Sinai date from Year 2 right up to Year 45 of his reign.

-At the Sinai Amenemhet III enlarged the temple to Hathor.

وكان فرعون من الأسرة الثانية عشرة في مصرالفرعونيه. حكم فيها من 1860 الى 1814 قبل الميلاد كان يعتبر أعظم ملك من ملوك الوسطى.و حكم مع ابيه مدة 20 عاما قبل ان يحكم منفردا سنوسرت الثالث .
تسلم امنمحات الثالث فترة حكمه من والده سلميه و على اسس دبلوماسيه جيده مع جيرانهم .
في نهاية عهده أقام فترة حكم مشتركه ايضا مع مع خليفته أمنمحات الرابع ، كما هو مسجل في النقوش الصخرية التالفة الموجوده في النوبة .
اعقبت ابنته ،( Sobekneferu) سوبكى نفرو، في وقت لاحق أمنمحات الرابع، و كانت آخر حاكم من سلالة الأسرة الثانية عشرة.
كان إسم عرش أمنمحات الثالث Nimaatre،و هو يعني "الانتماء الى عدالة رع "

اسرته :-
والده :الفرعون سيزوستريس (Sesostris) الثالث [باني قناة سيزوستريس].
 زوجته الرئيسيه: Aat آت
بناته : Neferuptah وشقيقتها،  الفرعون Sobekneferu ("جمال سوبك").
ابنه : إن فرعون أمنمحات الرابع.

حكمه : -- 
كان فى خلال فترة حكمه الطويلة (حوالى 45 عاما) يتبع سياسات أسلافه من سلالة الأسرة الثانية عشرة وكان النمو الاقتصادي في مصر في كافة الأوقات عالياً .

*فى الزراعه : 
زيادة الزراعة في الفيوم ( أكمل أمنمحات الثالث خطة استصلاح الأراضي التي بدأها والده  سيزوستريس  الثالث ، وكان هذا المشروع للحصول على 17000 فدان من الأراضي الزراعية من البحيرة ( بحيرة قارون).

*فى التعدين :
تركزت عمليات التعدين بشكل كبيرفي المحاجر إما في مصر أو في سيناء بدأً من السنة الثانيه و حتى 45 سنة من حكمه ,كما اوضحت النقوش الأثريه.

*فى التعمير :
بنى الهرمه الأول في دهشور "الهرم الأسود" ولكن كانت هناك مشاكل فى البناء وتم التخلي عن هذاالبناء و لم يدفن الملك به .

بعد حوالي 15 سنة من حكمه قرر الملك بناء هرما جديد في هوارة بالقرب من الفيوم. وقد استخدم الهرم في دهشور كمقبره ملكية للعديد من النساء من العائله الحاكمه.
انشأ معبده الجنائزي في هوارة و انشأ هرما مصاحبا له. وربما كان معروفا لهيرودوت الذي اثنى عليه قائلا أنه من عجائب الدنيا .
يتضمن هرم الملك في هوارة بعض الميزات الأمنية الأكثر تعقيدا من أمثالها و التى وجدت في مصر ، ومع ذلك فقد سرقت في العصور القديمة.
 كما شيد أمنمحات الثالث المعابد في الفيوم للإله سوبك، ومعبد للإلهة الكوبرا في المعادي قرب القاهرة.

وايضا فى سيناء اضاف توسعة لمعبد حتحور.

و له انشاءات أخرى كثيره اكثر من ان تقال فى مقال قصير مثل هذا.

تعليقى الخاص على الموضوع :-
تستطيع ان تدرك كيف ان الفراعنه الاجداد كانوا يعملون بجد فى كل مجالات الحياة و لهذا تركوا هذه الحضاره العظيمه الخالده.
مع العلم انهم كانوا موحدين فى أغلب العصور و ما الآلهه بالنسبه لهم إلا تجسيد لصفات الإله الواحد الأحد بقدر إدراكهم فى هذه العصور و الدليل على ما أقول وجود انبياء كثر فى مصر الفرعونيه و القديمه و بالتأكيد كان هناك اتباع و مؤمنين بهؤلاء الأنبياء مثل سيدناابراهيم و يوسف و عيسى و موسى و ذا النون المصرى و ذا الكفل و ادريس عليهم السلام.

    Menes The Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh مينا موحد القطرين ... مع درس فوتوشوب

     تاريخ الملك العظيم مينا موحد القطرين مع درس فى الفوتو شوب

    The history of Menes with a Photoshop lesson

    The original picture of Menes 










    The Photoshop manipulated picture 

    King Menes is traditionally believed to have begun Egyptian history.Ancient tradition ascribed to Menes the honour of having united Upper and Lower Egypt into in a single kingdom and becoming the first pharaoh of Dynasty I 

     Actually, Menes is the Greek form of the name provided by the third century BC Egyptian historian, Manetho.The name, Menes, means "He who endures" ,denoting a semi-legendary hero .

    Menes was the founding king of the 1st Dynasty, and was the first king to unify Upper and Lower Egypt into one kingdom. Ancient Egypt's most predominant form of civilization began with his crowning, and did not end permanently until the beginning of the  Roman era, which started with Augustus Caeser. Menes founded the city of Memphis, and chose as its location an island in the Nile, so that it would be easy to defend. He was also the founder of Crocodopolis. During his time, the Egyptian army performed raids against the Nubians in the south and expanded his sphere of influence as far as the First Cataract.

    However, his name does not appear on extant pieces of the Royal Annals (Cairo Stone and Palermo Stone), which is a now-fragmentary king's list that was carved onto a stela during the Fifth dynasty. He typically appears in later sources as the first human ruler of Egypt, directly inheriting the throne from the god Horus. He also appears in other, much later, king's lists, always as the first human pharaoh of Egypt. Menes also appears in demotic novels of the Graeco-Roman Period, demonstrating that, even that late, he was regarded as important figure.

    Who is Menes ?
    Menes and Narmer 
    The almost complete absence of any mention of Menes in the archaeological record, and the comparative wealth of evidence of Narmer, a protodynastic figure credited by posterity and in the archaeological record with a firm claim to the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt, has given rise to a theory identifying Menes with Narmer.

    Aha (the pharaoh Hor-Aha)
    The relationship between Hor-Aha and Menes (as one person or as successive pharaohs) have arisen.

    The Palermo stone, inscribed on both sides of a black basalt slab, dates from the  Fifth Dynasty and records names of the kings of the 1-5th Dynasties. The first three dynasties consist almost exclusively of events that give the years their names.
    The King-list on this stone mentions several pre-dynastic kings as well as the name of Narmer, Menes, and Aha.

    Some states that "Menes is Narmer and the First Dynasty begins with him". However,some others states that it is "a fairly safe inference" that Menes was Hor-Aha.

    His Family :
    His chief wife was Queen Berenib, though she was not the mother of his heir, King Djer, and his mother was probably Neithotepe, if that lady was not also his wife. His death is a mystery, for, according to legend he was attacked by wild dogs and  Nile crocodiles in the  Faiyum . Aha's tomb resides at Saqqara, the famed necropolis of Memphis.


    Capital
    Manetho associates the city of Thinis with the first dynasties (Dynasty I and Dynasty II) and, in particular, Menes, a "Thinite" or native of Thinis. Herodotus contradicts Manetho in stating that Menes founded the city of Memphis as his capital after diverting the course of the River Nile through the construction of a dyke. Manetho ascribes the building of Memphis to Menes' son, Athothis, and calls no pharaohs earlier than Dynasty III "Memphite".


    His Death
    Menes, we are told ruled for about 62 years, led the army across the frontier and won great glory. He was killed by a crocodile.


    الملك مينا صاحب التاجين و موحد القطرين
    سمى هذا العصر بالعصر العتيق وهو يشمل الأسرتين الأولى والثانية من تاريخ مصر القديم 
    الملك مينا موحد القطرين فرعون من الأسرة المصرية الأولى مدينة طيبة (الأقصر
     حاليا)، استطاع أن يوحد القطرين(المملكتين الشمال والجنوب) حوالي عام 3200 ق.م ولقب لهذا الفضل العظيم بعدة ألقاب مثل ملك الأرضين، صاحب التاجين، نسر الجنوب، ثعبان الشمال
     أصبح الملك "مينا" مؤسس أول أسرة حاكمة فى تاريخ مصر الفرعونية، بل فى تاريخ العالم كله، ولبس التاج المزدوج لمملكتي الشمال والجنوب

    أصل اسم مينا
    يذكر اسم مينا في بعض الكتابات المصرية القديمة باسم (ميني)، ومن ثم حرف المصريون الاسم إلى مينا و كلمة (ميني) تعنى باللغة المصرية القديمة "يؤسس" أو "يشيد"، فكأن المصريين أرادوا أن يبجلوا عمله في اسمه  وبعض المؤرخين يؤكدون أن (ميني) فعل أو لقب وليس اسما. أما في اللغه القبطية(المصرية القديمه) فاسم مينا له مرادفات كثيرة منها  ثابت أو راسخ أو مكين أو دائم أو باق


     انشاء قلعة الجدار الأبيض و العاصمه الموحده
    أدرك الملك "مينا" ضرورة بناء مدينة متوسطة الموقع، يستطيع منها الإشراف على الوجهين القبلى والبحري، فقام بتأسيس مدينة جديدة على الشاطئ الغربي للنيل مكان قرية "ميت رهينة" الحالية بمحافظة الجيزة، وقد كانت في أول الأمر قلعة حربية محاطة بسور أبيض، أراد بها صاحبها أن يحصن ويحمى المملكة من غارات أصحاب الشمال، وكان "مينا" قد أسماها "نفر" أى الميناء الجميل، وفيما بعد سميت باسم "ممفيس" عصراليونان، ثم اطلق عليها العرب "منف" عند فتح مصر، وقد أصبحت مدينة "منف" عاصمة لمصر كلها فى عهد الدولة القديمة حتى نهاية الأسرة السادسة

    تم تسجيل انتصارات الملك مينا على مملكة الشمال وتوحيده البلاد على هذه اللوحه   ويرجح المؤرخون أن نارمر هو مينا

    Rainbow , And How To Create A Realistic Rainbow Effect With Photoshop (with video) قوس قزح

    The original picture 



    The Photoshop picture

    What is a rainbow ?

    A rainbow is an optical ( Optics is the branch of physics which involves the behavior and properties of light,) and meteorological ( Meteorology is the scientific study of the atmosphere) phenomenon that causes a spectrum of light to appear in the sky when the Sun shines on to droplets of moisture in the Earth's atmosphere. It takes the form of a multicoloured arc. Rainbows caused by sunlight always appear in the section of sky directly opposite the sun.

    In a so-called "primary rainbow" (the lowest, and also normally the brightest rainbow) the arc of a rainbow shows red on the outer (or upper) part of the arc, and violet on the inner section. This rainbow is caused by light being reflected once in droplets of water. In a double rainbow, a second arc may be seen above and outside the primary arc, and has the order of its colours reversed (red faces inward toward the other rainbow, in both rainbows). This second rainbow is caused by light reflecting twice inside water droplets. The region between a double rainbow is dark. The reason for this dark band is that, while light below the primary rainbow comes from droplet reflection, and light above the upper (secondary) rainbow also comes from droplet reflection, there is no mechanism for the region between a double rainbow to show any light reflected from water drops.
    Triple rainbows are impossible.

    For colours seen by a normal human eye, the most commonly cited and remembered sequence, in English, is Newton's seven-fold red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. However, colour-blind persons will see fewer colors.

    Causes And Visibility 
    Rainbows can be caused by many forms of airborne water. These include not only rain, but also mist, spray, and airborne dew( Dew is water in the form of droplets that appears on thin, exposed objects in the morning or evening.).
    The rainbow effect is also commonly seen near waterfalls or fountains. In addition, the effect can be artificially created by dispersing water droplets into the air during a sunny day.
    The rainbow effect is also commonly seen near waterfalls or fountains. In addition, the effect can be artificially created by dispersing water droplets into the air during a sunny day.

    N.B A moonbow (also known as a lunar rainbow, lunar bow or white rainbow) is a rainbow produced by light reflected off the surface of the moon rather than from direct sunlight. Moonbows are relatively faint, due to the smaller amount of light reflected from the surface of the moon. They are always in the opposite part of the sky from the moon.

    Its Variations
    * Double rainbow
    * Supernumerary rainbow or stacker rainbow
    * Reflected rainbow or reflection rainbow
    * Monochrome rainbow
    * Circumhorizontal arc

    قوس قزح
    قَوْسُ قُزح يسمى كذلك قوس المطر أو قوس الألوان وهو ظاهرة طبيعية فيزيائية ناتجة عن انكسار وتحلل ضوء الشمس خلال قطرة ماء المطر

    يظهر القوس قزح بعد سقوط المطر أو خلال سقوط المطر والشمس مشرقة
    تكون الألوان في القوس اللون الأحمر من الخارج ويتدرج إلى البرتقالي فالأصفر فالأخضر فالأزرق فأزرق غامق (نيلي) فبنفسجي من الداخل

    ضوء الشمس يحتوي علي العديد من الالوان الطيفية وهي عبارة عن أشعة ذات اطوال موجية مختلفة

    يظهر قوس القزح عادة بشكل نصف دائري وفي حالات نادرة يكون قمرياً حيث يكون انكسار ضوء القمر المسبب لهُ عبر قطرة الماء ملائماً مع مكان وجود القمر في تلك اللحظات. ويظهر للمشاهد نتيجة لضوئهِ الخافت أبيض لأن العين البشرية لا تستطيع ان ترى الألوان في الليل

    Open the landscape picture you like in Photoshop .


    • Add new layer and select the Gradient Tool , it will open the tool option bar up, select the shape like a rainbow ,and choose ,radial gradient and draw a horizontal line , it will draw the bow.Put the the blending mode of the layer to Screen . 
    • Go to Filter Menu - Blur - Motion Blur put the distance to 24to 26 .   
    • Add layer mask to that layer by selecting the layer and click the icon down( the diagram). Put the Foreground color to black and Background color to white .Go again to the Gradient Tool and select now black and white gradient and draw a line from down upward outside the bow .
    • Duplicate the layer and put the Opacity from 10-15.
    • Duplicate the second layer again and select the move tool and move it slightly outside the arc .
    • Select the lower two layers and put them in one group (Ctrl +G).
    • Add a layer mask to the group layer and put the color to black and select soft brush ( put the hardness to 0) and click on the area of the arc on the ground to eliminate it .
    • That's all , save your work .  
    Thanks

    Obesity And Weight loss with Photoshop السمنه و معالجتها بالفوتوشوب

    Before

    After




     Obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to the extent that it may have an adverse effect on health, leading to reduced life expectancy and/or increased health problems.

    Body mass index  BMI :
     It is defined as the individual's body weight divided by the square of his or her height.
    BMI = mass( kg ) / height ( m )square
     Body mass index (BMI), a measurement which compares weight and height, defines people as overweight (pre-obese) if their BMI is between 25 and 30 kg/m2, and obese when it is greater than 30 kg/m2 .

    Obesity increases the likelihood of various diseases, particularly heart disease, type 2 diabetes, breathing difficulties during sleep, certain types of cancer, and osteoarthritis.

    The most commonly used definitions, established by the World Health Organization (WHO) using the BMI is :
    Any BMI between 20-25 is  overweight (pre-obese) and obese when it is greater than 30 kg/m2 .
    Any BMI ≥ 35 or 40 is severe obesity
    A BMI of ≥ 35 or 40–44.9 or 49.9 is morbid obesity
    A BMI of ≥ 45 or 50 is super obesity

    Causes of obesity :
     Obesity is most commonly caused by a combination of excessive food energy intake, lack of physical activity, and genetic susceptibility, although a few cases are caused primarily by genes, endocrine disorders, medications or psychiatric illness.

     Evidence to support the view that some obese people eat little yet gain weight due to a slow metabolism is limited; on average obese people have a greater energy expenditure than their thin counterparts due to the energy required to maintain an increased body mass.

    Treatment of obesity :
    • Dieting and physical exercise are the mainstays of treatment for obesity. Moreover, it is important to improve diet quality by reducing the consumption of energy-dense foods such as those high in fat and sugars, and by increasing the intake of dietary fiber. 
    • To supplement dieting and physical exercise  , or in case of failure, anti-obesity drugs may be taken to reduce appetite or inhibit fat absorption.
    • In severe cases, surgery is performed or an intragastric balloon is placed to reduce stomach volume and/or bowel length, leading to earlier satiation and reduced ability to absorb nutrients from food.
    Mortality : 
    Obesity is one of the leading preventable causes of death worldwide.Large-scale American and European studies have found that mortality risk is lowest at a BMI of 20–25 kg/m in non-smokers and at 24–27 kg/m2 in current smokers, with risk increasing along with changes in either direction .

    Artificial Flowers And How To Designing It With Photoshop

    Artificial flowers and imitations of natural flowers are sometimes made for scientific purposes (the collection of glass flowers at Harvard University, for example, which illustrates the flora of the United States), but more often as articles for commercial or residential decoration.

    Materials used in their manufacture 
    It have included painted linen and shavings of stained horn in Egypt, gold and silver in ancient Rome, rice-paper in China, silkworm cocoons in Italy, colored feathers in South America, and also wax and tinted shells.

    Modern techniques involve carved or formed soap, nylon netting stretched over wire frames, ground clay, and mass-produced injection plastic mouldings. Polyester is the major material for manufacturing of artificial flowers since 1970s. Most artificial flowers in the market nowadays are made of polyester fabrics.

    Types of flowers according to its material 
    • Polyester and paper.
    Today the major material used in artificial flower production is polyester fabric.
    • Nylon Stocking Flowers .
    The basic materials needed to make nylon flowers include: wire, stem wire, nylon stocking, nylon threading, floral tape and stamen. Some flowers require cotton balls or sheets (or you can use batting), white glue, acrylic paint and paint brushes.
    • Silk Flowers.
    It make the flowers and the entire plant look more life-like .These days’ silk flowers make use of a real touch technique which gives the plant a fairly realistic look.
    • Colored Soap .
    Both Carved ,and Molded soap 
    • Clay.
    Clay flowers are made by hand from special air-dry polymer clay or cold porcelain, steel wire, paint, glue, tape and sometimes paper and foam as a filler. With the help of cutters .
    • Plastic.
    Injection moulding is used for mass manufacture of plastic flowers. Plastic is injected into a preformed metal die.
    • Glass ( the one I had imitated in my design) .
    Flowers made of glass are typically more stylized and contemporary. Glass is melted and blown by hand into the shapes of the flower. Working with glass at high temperatures to form the flower is very difficult which is why glass flowers are much more expensive than typical artificial flowers.



    This picture shows collection of artificial flowers with matching colors ,and glass appearance .
    I wanted to draw a garden but, it comes like this .That artwork can be a card design if we save it in jpeg format . 
    I liked it what is your opinion? 

    ورود صناعيه من الزجاج 
    حاولت رسم ورود الحديقه ولكنها اعجبتنى كذلك
    ماذا ترون؟

    أجمل ما يمكن ان تراه العيون هى الزهور  وخاصه الطبيعيه منها ولكن لصعوبه الامر  لدى البعض لتعذر العنايه بها او لارتفاع اسعارها   كان على الانسان ان يجد البديل فكانت الزهور الصناعيه 

    و تختلف الزهور الصناعيه فى الشكل و المواد المستخدمه بها   فهناك الزهور المصنوعة  من الورق او البورسلين وهناك المصنوعه من النايلون   و كذلك الحرير واخرى مصنوعه   من الطين و البلاستيك وغيرها  

    هناك ايضا الزهور المصنوعه من الزجاج و التى اردت رسمها و تجسيدها فى هذه   القطعه الفنيه ارجو ان تحوز اعجابكم  وقد اضفت فيديو توضيحى لكيفية رسمها بالفوتوشوب

    Sunglasses And how to add shadow to it with Photoshopاضافه ظل فوتوشوب للنظاره

    النظارات الشمسيه 
    هى شكل من اشكال الحمايه للعيون من اشعه الشمس الحارقه والأشعة فوق البنفسجية الضارة والتى تسبب العديد من المشاكل للعيون 

    Sunglasses or sun glasses are a form of protective eyewear designed primarily to prevent bright sunlight and high-energy visible light from damaging or discomforting the eyes. They also help cancel out harmful ultraviolet radiation (UV) rays from the sun and blue light, which can cause several serious eye problems . They can sometimes also function as a visual aid .


    Ultraviolet (UV) light is electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength shorter than that of visible light, but longer than X-rays, in the range 10 nm to 400 nm, and energies from 3eV to 124 eV. It is named because the spectrum consists of electromagnetic waves with frequencies higher than those that humans identify as the color violet.
    Although ultraviolet is invisible to the human eye, most people are aware of the effects of UV through the painful condition of sunburn, but the UV spectrum has many other effects, both beneficial and damaging, to human health.

    Functions of the sunglasses :


    * Visual clarity and comfort ,
    Sunglasses can improve visual comfort and visual clarity by protecting the eye from glare [ Glare is difficulty seeing in the presence of bright light such as direct or reflected sunlight or artificial light such as car headlamps at night.] 

    * Protection
    Sunglasses offer protection against excessive exposure to light, including its visible and invisible components.
     
    * Further functions of sunglasses
       To be used in sports ,space ,and  under water .
