meditation, a photo from Casablanca, North

Photographer's Note

My first visit in the big mosque HASSAN II, architecture so magnificent as exceptional, an exceptional place for meditation.
At this end of morning, just before a prayer, two persons discuss in front of this glazed main entrance, in front of the ocean ......
Measure of the light outside, the net fact inside, and that it...... and without a noise....

I like this very much - I love the way the arch disappears into the floor and the waver of the reflection.

Photo profonde par sa composition et sa luminosite.

beautiful..... the silhoutte and the reflection are great ... maybe if the upper part could be appeared too will be nice...

Superbe! Le jeu d'ombre est réussi et doux pour l'oeil. Les silhouettes ressemblent d'avantage à des hommes d'affaires, ce qui les rend étranges dans un tel lieux. Je ne comprends pas toutefois d'où proviennent les lignes horizontales brouillées sur le plancher...le reflet de la lumière?

Wow, amazing picture with a stunning relfection. Very mysterieus and a nice arabian atmosphere.

Very good composition. Accurate exposition ..

Le cadrage qui favorise le reflet plus que les baies vitrées a vraiment quelque chose d'intriguant et accroche le regard.
Mais, alors que la réflexion se devrait d'être intérieure, c'est vers le dehors que se concentrent ces deux personnages.
Comme quoi, là encore, les apparences ne sont pas ce qu'elles laissent paraître... ;-)

Wonderful photograph. Very well composed and perfect exposure. The human element gives the photograph life. Amazing shot.

Very creative idea and excellent result. Empty space works well, beautiful "ornament", nice tones, great reflection... Perfect.

Tres belle photo laurent : contrastes, details, personnages... Pourquoi avoir casse la symetrie (arche superieure) ?

Great!!! It looks like TETRIS ;) Unfortunately I was not allowed to enter this mosque during my short visit - a big mass / prayer.
