| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
| The Badshahi Mosque or the 'Emperor's Mosque', was built in 1673 by the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb in Lahore, Pakistan. It is one of the city's best known landmarks, and a major tourist attraction epitomising the beauty and grandeur of the Mughal era. Capable of accommodating over 55,000 worshippers, it is the second largest mosque in Pakistan, after the Faisal Mosque in Islamabad. The architecture and design of the Badshahi Masjid is closely related to the Jama Masjid in Delhi, India, which was built in 1648 by Aurangzeb's father and predecessor, emperor Shah Jahan. |

Irfan, a straight shot would have worked much better for me. Though I kind of like the effect on the white lights, I don't think zooming accomplished anything in this case.
Yes !! long time ago I didn't found an efficiant an well made zoom slide !!
Against Woosbman, I think that this effect gives a nice dynamic for this potentially too static plan. A kind of dream view like the remains we can have in mind.
Well done !!!

Salam Irfan. You have created a wonderful effect here, a glowing presence and an unearthly one. Great lights. Miracle that those people in the front did not move in the 6seconds.Regards. Klaudio.
