The sun and the moon Photo

Photographer’s Note

So, back to those Oman shot that I never finished with before Christmas.

Looks like an easy shot, only I know that I took through the front window of a rather fast moving landcruiser driver around Nizwa.

Hi Richard,

Great composition on this image. I wouldn't of guessed that you were in a moving vehicle when you took the photo, well done. The image is pretty sharp.

Hello Richard,

Welcome to your new picture !
And welcome to this Oman picture, which immediately shows an oriental scent. The orange hue of the setting sun, the minaret with the crescent the desertic mountains, everything works well here -
Friendly yours- Izzet

Hello Richard,

You captured an excellent and beautiful frame in almost few colors and of course with spectacular silhouettes. I like your position that sun creates splendid back-lights and helps to create silhouettes of minaret, dome and mountains. Congratulations.

I wish you and your family a healthy, happy, peaceful and prosperous New Year.

Best Regards,

Ertugrul

Hello Richard
Hats off how you achieved this wonderful shot through the front window of the car. Composition is excellent with the sun placed next to the tower & thus your title could not be more apt. Love the layers & silhouette effects here. Beautiful shot
Regards
Angshu

This is a gorgeous image of the setting sun, it really captures the beauty of the light at that specific time of day, and the minaret adds a nice spiritual feeling to the mood of the image.
