Good shot, I like it because the mosque is in darkness and the the letters and top of the minarets are lighted. madness - May, 30 2006 09:05am Marianne, the letters are made up with electricity bulbs mortimer - May, 30 2006 10:05am This is a very good example of a blue hour shot. Some time after the sun has set the sky is blue not black as in the deep night. Very well composed, the only negative aspect is some grainy blue parts horourke - May, 30 2006 06:05pm Wonderful picture full of interest rangutan - May, 31 2006 07:05am Burak, an excellent 5* night shot and well described too.
