Photographer's Note

The Koutoubia mosque is one of the most beautiful and oldest mosques in Morocco, built by Yakoub El-Mansour (1184-99). It has two other build in the same style, one in Seville and an incomplete in Rabat.
Here we can see the minaret, it is 70 meters hight, its beauty is something that catch our eyes.

Hola Jorge.
Una composicion realmente hermosa, combinando la belleza de esas flores, en contraste con la obra de arte de la Koutoubia, una perfecta nitidez, que nos permite ver claramente, el elaborado dise de la torre en sus arcos y ventanales.
El gran colorido es una delicia para esta preciosa imagen. Me encanta.
Saludos cordiales.
Luis.

Hello Jorge,

A nicely framed view to the minaret, the flowers add life to the ancient structures!
The fine light renders clean vivid colours, with the blue as great background for all...
Sharp fine details too!
