Wonderful cityscape Galal and a good job with your tones, I love the silhouettes and I like that you fixed the tilt. I also like the color version. A very well balanced and well taken architectural image....:):)Linda

This is beautiful, Galal! I love the minarets in the misty distance. But you should probably have straightened them, making them truly vertical.

Very beautiful - i like the "levels" - how the buidlings disappear and turn lighter and lighter, pherhaps becuase it's humid! Excellent capture!

Beautiful composition, i like too much the treatment of the front, middle and foreground themes, and the b/w one gives more dramatism to the scene...

Good photograph, Galal. You gave it just the right 'feel' for it to be called 'old'.

Best wishes,

The front arrangement is so nice that balanced the background where it enhances it and gives it a bit of natural contrast, the vertical lines as minarets works perfectly in this composition, superb. Saeed
