This is a beautiful scene from the front yard of the Prophet's mosque situated in Madeena. This mosque is considered the second holiest site in Islam by Muslims.

Grand view with all the people and the canopies. Things have become much better and easier for all pilgrims.

These inverted "umbrellas" are ingenious and beautiful as well. I can also see fans to move the air under the canopies but I'm a bit puzzled that I see very few sunlit stripes on the floor from the gaps in the canopies. Perhaps your position is such that most of them are blocked? What ever the case this is a most interesting view of a part of the Arab world that many of us westerners normally wouldn't see. I also can appreciate how you've controlled the light contrast in not allowing the light or shadow to overpower the other, a very good balance letting us see every nook and cranny in the hsot. Great composition, light, DOF... everything. Thanks for the culture lesson. Saved, faved, and would have nominated it except I see it already has been.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.

Very interesting indeed. I really enjoy looking at places of worship no matter what the religion.
