1,200 Iranian artists knitted wool and cotton together over two million times before the mainly green and red piece was ready. It also took 3,000 workers and almost 40 contracting companies to build the Islamic site

Image rotation and shadow highlight

All I've done is to rotate the image by 4.3 degrees CCW as it was off balence. You can do this in Photoshop using: Image, Rotate Canvas, Arbitrary, chose CW or CCW and then estimate the extent to which it needs to be rotated in degrees. You will need to experiment a few times to get it right.
After the canvas is level, you will need to crop the photo to remove the big white parts that now exist. Using the 'Rectangular Marquee Tool' select what of the photo you wish to keep, and then go to: Image, Crop.
I've also tried to make the olours a little deeper by using the Shadow/ Highlight tool, and increased the highlights by 40%.
