| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
This is from somewhere in the old part of Sanaa, a UNESCO world heritage. I don't remember which mosque this is, because this picture is from my very first day in the city, when I was walking aimlessly through the maze of winding, narrow lanes, being totally lost.
As I struggled to obtain correct colours for this scan of a Kodachrome slide I decided to just give the photo a sepia tone, because it reminds me of old photos from the "Orient". |

Hej Gert,
Yes, this looks really old, the dresses of the men, the building etc. Everything gives an impression of a photo taken a long time ago by a real explorer.
Hälsningar
