~ interior ~, a photo from Tunis, North

Photographer's Note

An interior view of Ez Zitouna mosque 732 AD, in Tunis medina showing mass of reused authentic Roman columns brought originally from the ruins of the old city of Carthage. An awe-inspiring place to be, in a state of pure calmness away from all the noise and hectic maddening world outside.....

Taken using available light, hand-held without flash which I always find challenging.

Setting: 10 mm, 1/4 sec, F4, ISO Raw 200, 1627 hrs

Ciao Abmdsudi,

It reminds me a little of the Mesquite Mosque Cathedral in Cordoba, Spain. Good sharpness and perspective. Amazing repetition of the arches and columns. Tfs!

Bonjour Abmdsudi

J'ai eu le plaisir de visiter cet endroit, mais il y a déjà bien longtemps. C'est toujours aussi beau toute ces arches bien illuminées. Superbe ambiance.

Amicalement

Hello Abmdsudi,

I had to smile when I read your notes, the citizens of Tunis were seemingly, ahead of the game, when it came to recycling! Why let such fine stone features decay, when they could be honestly reused for the benefit of the mosque.
It's an amazing interior!
The pillars stand proudly, supporting repeating arches and pretty, illuminated chandeliers. Love the mosaic floors, too.
You have created an excellent sense of depth to what appears to be an open door.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Abmdsudi
Wonderful interior expertly photographed. It's almost hard to believe it was shot hand-held.
You really managed to capture the atmosphere you are taking about in the note.
Greetings from Agra.

Hello Abmdsudi, you have achieved a great sense of depth as we look through all the arches towards the open door at the very back of the medina.
You managed the interior light really well, details are quite clear.
Thanks for sharing, regards Jean.
