So, I had another camera in my handbag. (Thank God). One that I brought just in case my Sony Cybershot run out of battery. This one is Canon IXUS 970IS. Takes good and sharp pictures.
the Aleppo Citadel Syria again… awesome!
The Mosque of Mohammed Ali, Egypt.
Suleyman Mosque, Turkey and The Great Mosque of Qairawan, Tunisia.
Al-Hambra, Spain. (More articles on this @ a, b, c, d. I like to read about this era. Spain was once ruled by the Muslims. ‘His story’ eh!) Time was against me. I had to rush by now or miss my flight home. I wanted to finish all plus see the main attraction here. Oh yes! This was a huge attraction alright, but the best is yet to come and I cannot miss it… I was almost running from one miniature to another.
The Kalyan Minaret, Uzbekistan. By now, I couldn’t think of how to put it all into one frame, tilt here and there… 1:8?? How does the real thing look like anyway?
The Great Mosque of Agadez, Nigeria and Xian Mosque, China
the Kul Sharif Mosque in Russia. This one had me rooted and gawking at it too… didn’t know why. Here is another site you should look at on this mosque by photosynth. Amazing work! That’s the last of the miniature.
I stopped at the cafe for a drink then rushed of to the…
…. Crystal Mosque, Kuala Terengganu. I managed to perform solah, sunnat, Zuhr n Asar… happy! very happy! Just no time to snap picture of the interior. I was terribly terribly late.
