Photographer’s Note

Picture taken in Hyderabad, a very busy city in Andhra Pradesh (around 7 000 000 people). Char Minar means "four minarets" in Urdu : it is a mosque (on the top floor). It was built in the late 16th century by the muslim dinasty (Qutub Shahis)ruling the kingdon (known as Golconda). Hyderabad is also one of the fast developing cities in the country and a modern hub of Information Technology, known as "Cyberabad".

I am surprised that this shot hasn't been commented on! It's a great wide angle view of the Char Minar, with plenty of the busy foreground that can be expected in Hyderabad. Very interesting to look at....great work!
