[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is the one of the prettiest buildings in the east! The Mosque was built from imported Italian marble and special handicrafted stained-glass windows from England and carpets from Saudi Arabia, and was finished in 1958. There is an elevator going to the top of the 44 m minaret. In the artificial lagoon that surrounds the Mosque, there is a replica of an 16th century Royal Barge. The building is as impressive looking during the night when it's lit up by different coloured lights.
Only work done was that I cropped it a bit.

Nice reflections and POV. Sharp and detailed picture. Good note.

Nice reflections of an impressive building. You should have tilted the camera downwards a little to haveincluded all the reflection.
I would love to see a night shot.
