| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
| This beautiful Mosque named after Suleyman the Magnificent was designed by the famous architect Mimar Senan. It's not only the biggest Mosque in Turkey but a whole social center. It includes a hospital, an orpanage, a hostel, a library, a cemetery and more, all built in a perfect and simple harmony. The Sultan, his wife and the architect are all burried here. |

Very nice shot. The floor emphasizes the perspective and creates an added sense of size as do the people. The stained glass windows are very nice, too. But I really like these circular rows of lamps, one within the other. It gives a hint at the dome above. You captured a very nice clean space in a very clean manner here. It seems to need just a slight counter clockwise rotation to level it out. But very nicely photographed, non-the-less.
