[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
As most visitors already know, foreigners are not allowed inside mosques in Morocco .I was told that this law had been taken during the French Protectorate, and that they did not take new measures since. But sometimes the doors are full open, and one can catch a glimpse inside. This is exactly what happened while walking in the souks, and I had barely the time to snap just one shot when I saw the man . I used no tripod, but full aperture which allowed me a reasonable speed at 200 ISO.

Selamlar Usta,
bunu bilmiyordum ben.. "ignorance is bliss" demişler ya, benimki de o hesap oraya gittigimde camilerine girdim çıktım sürekli ('99 yılı sanıyorum), bir allahın kulu da bana birşey sormadı(?).. fotoğraf çekmedim gerçi, ondan olabilir.. :)

çok nefis bir kompozisyon bu, oraya özgü kapı kemerinin altında adamı iyi yakalamışsınmız..Fas'ın afrika ve arap karışımı muhteşem bir sentezi var zaten..

tebrikler, selam ve hürmetler.

Bonjour Izzet,
J'aime beaucoup l'histoire de cette photo. On sent l'instant volé tout autant que le respect pour le sujet, 2 choses rares à combiner.
Je me suis permis quelques corrections en workshop pour améliorer le contraste et la netteté.Cordialement,
M-H

Hi Izzet.
When I've seen this photo I've remembered another from Morocco.
Different, but there is something similar.
The composition and the light and the shadows are very good.

Thanks for share.

Hi Izzet friend, I continue learning of your photos which in addition I enjoy. Of this the light of the arc in contrast to the dark of the interior calls the attention to me in which it appears the diffuse silhouette of a man.
I like much your work, congratulations.

A strong hug.

Paco

Merhaba İzzet Bey,
Harika bir kompozisyon ve nefis detaylar.. detaylardaki pastel renkleri ve adamın bulunduğu noktayı çok beğendim..
Sevgiler / Coşkun

The decoration of the door is stunning. Good composition. I like teh repetition of the arches. Nice frame. Regards, Yvonne

Süslemelerdeki renk tonları ve kompozisyon gerçekten güzel, adamın olması çok şey katmış. Selam ve Sevgiler
