Photographer’s Note
Inside the Sheikh Lotfollah mosque. Colors, light, lines.... everything is perfect in this place. This photo was inspired by the photo on the entrance ticket.

Very interesting lines and pleasing colors. I like this shot quite a lot. However, I do wish it was sharper, especially the dome. I think a narrower aperture would have helped quite a lot with that, I am assuming you were using some type of support (tripod or other). Interesting shot in that it looks both like we are looking up, or looking down, you can't really tell (although I am pretty sure it is looking up).

great composition and colors ; nice lines very dynamique. The two colonnes take our eyes very quickly to the "sky" as a russian moutain attraction.
well done Laurent, great idée

A very good geometrical picture. Beautiful composition and DOF, very good colors. I like very much that u used blue vs yellow, two oposite colors that work very well together. Congratulations.

Fascinating shot, almost make my head aches; works like optical illusions, when one cannot tell up from down, close from far, neither colors from one another. Good work here!

great, a good way to show the decorative "curls" ( in blue ,a la mode in Safavid Period I thin., curl is what they are called in farsi )& inside of the dome ..we can never show the beaty of these domes by taking their picture, one must Be there to see & fell it. the camera is not enough...bien vue !!

Unusual shot but great result. Quite original if you ask me though you said in your note that the entrance ticket gave you the idea. Even copying great work is not always easy. Your photo is maybe not as sharp as it should be, especially not in the dome area but still, I love the final result.
