Photographer’s Note

During the last decades, new mosques have been sporting yet taller minarets with sometimes two or even three balconies. A privilege that was reserved to great mosques of the empire. This is very small mosque in Beypazari ( A town famous for its old houses west of Ankara ) but its minaret is quite high. Perhaps the effect is emphasized because of the dark background caused by a lateral sunlight early in the morning: When I came again two hours later the dramatic effect was lost.
