Nice colours and shadow play.

Lovely image. I've always liked the way mosques are decorate, the way they use arabic script is simply stunning. The blue dome on this building is great as well, it makes it seem like the sky and dome are one.

Thanks Sanjin and Ariela!
I took this photo in Samarkand where Timur placed the capital of his empire. And this city is called 'capital of blue' for its famous beautiful blue tiles.

こんにちは
この写真、素敵ですね。
モスクのイスラム文様と半球体の青が、青空のグラデーションでより際立ってるような…ウズベキスタンに行ってみたくなるような写真です。

Yukioさん、こんにちは。
コメントありがとうございます。
ウズベキスタンのサマルカンドは青の都と呼ばれるだけあって、美しいモスクが沢山あります。

Amazing shots. I've always wanted to visit this place, greatly described by Amin Maalouf in his book Samarkand.

Thanks Califfoto!
Samrkand is worth to visit, I guess.
