Hello Miguel,
A well composed photo of the mosque and some activity in the foreground. You managed the somewhat difficult light very well, and the photo has a fine clarity.
Best regards,

Hello Miguel,

This is a very lovely building, not ostentatious in any way.
The discrete domes on the gate posts are a gentle introduction to the grander domes standing proud above the red roofs.

The use of the trees to frame the mosque works really well, softening the impression and creating a good sense of depth.

Have a good day,
Bev :-)

Hello Miguel,
The photo offers an excellent overview of the impressive complex of the mosque and its several domes of different sizes. The largest one in the middle stands out well from the sky and is nicely framed by the trees.

Nice view of this big mosque. Interesting architecture. There is no minaret in this style. Lovely entrance and nice lamps.
Best regards MAlgo

A superb take from a fair distance, Miguel, a pre-meditated POV, I guess.
Managed well the backlight and collected wonderful sight of the edifice.
Have a nice new day,
Ike

Kind regards, Jean.

Hello Miguel,
A beautiful building that is a bit between a palace and a mosque. The domes with the crescent moon of course make its function clear.
Well composed with the overhanging branches in both top corners.
Best regards, Paul

Hi Miguel,
very attractive architecture. Not an easy light but you did a great job with using the tree branches to cover the bright sky.
Excellent reportage from a less known area,
