Creative composition Khaled, you've done it in a wonderful way, i like the angle allot, actually it is one of the best shots I've seen for Ibn Tolon minaret, there is only one thing about this picture, the top of the minaret is a little out of focus, beside that the picture is just perfect, very well done, Regards,

The detail in the stone is amazing and looks as if it were made of silver. You have done an amazing job keeping everything with the correct lighting, and tones. Went into my favorites. Alison

The contrast between the b&w engravings in the foreground and the colorful minaret in the background makes this one of the best mosques pictures I have seen. Wonderful work.

Walt McNeil   {K:2146} 12/31/2004
Very unique picture. It might be interesting as well, to see someone standing there on the balcony or steps. Also do not forget to add a polarizer filter to bring out the clouds and give more color.

I like all your pictures; i wish I could be able to visit and see for myself all the people and beautiful pictures that you have taken.

Len Webster Len Webster   {K:25714} 12/30/2004
The minaret is wonderfully bold and striking in colour. The impression of a variety in shape is accentuated by the 'framework' created by the arch of the mosque.
