Hisor Fortress, a photo from Dushanbe, West

Photographer's Note

Hisor fortress in the ex-residence of Bek a deputy of Bukhara emir. The fortress walls were 1 meter thick and had gun slots for rifles and cannons. Inside of the fort was garden and water pool. Stairs and brick terraces were lead to the main entrance but unfortunately they were lost with time as well as the palace building. The only part that remains till our days is monumental gates built of burnt bricks with two cylinder towers and lancet arch between them. This type of architecture is typical for most of Bukhara buildings built within XVIII-XIX cc.

Bonjour Zbigniew,

Le cadrage est classique mais toujours aussi efficace. La symétrie est parfaite et la contre plongée donne une belle ampleur à l'ensemble. J'aime bien les gens qui se dirigent vers toi.

Amicalement

Serge

Hi Zbigniew,

The presence of the people has an effect of scale. The point of view is showing the details of the Hisor fortress. Have a nice day.
