[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is a picture taken inside the Mosque - Cathedral of Cordoba. I loved the designs of these lattices which barely let the light in. I love the shadow / light constrast here. I wish the box (or whatever the square thing in the bottom was) had not been there...

"The Córdoba's outstanding monument is the Cathedral, formerly the principal mosque of western Islam and still known as the Mezquita, one of the largest mosques in the world and the finest achievement of Moorish architecture in Spain, comparable in beauty and size with the great mosques of Mecca and Damascus, the El-Azhar Mosque in Cairo and the Blue Mosque in Istanbul. "

yvonne,
the box at the bottom actually worked in your favor, in my opinion. it diverts our eys a bit when we look at the frame. good patterns created here. good use of light.

Hi Yvonne - nice exotic patterns and light, simple but exquisite detail, well done.

Hola Yvonne.

Unos contrastes realmente muy bien vistos y captados.

La idea está muy, muy bien.

Un saludo, Oscar

Hi Yvonne,
I love the contrast between light and shadow in this picture, despite the black box at the bottom. Good job.
