I like this, a lot, it's like the man to the right is in the world but not participating in it ;)

Through this shot, we are entering the mosque. I imagine myself there, walking in silence and trying to not disturb. A very peaceful composition.

A superb image, Yiannis ... it communicates so very much with its simplicity and beautiful composition!

There are patterns on the floor, windows, wall and ceiling - the silhouettes of the people become an additional pattern. I also like the contrast of the group vs. the two at the windows by themselves.

I'm surprised they permitted you to photograph this. Love the windows in this structure.

I love the different patterns on the wall, on the ground, on the windows...

I like this cons-day scene. You managed very well not to burn the details of the people and the walls. Very beautiful atmosphere

Image is perfectly captured. Use of space, great tonality, and well framed. Like the detail in the shadows as well.

Lovely shot with wonderful tones. I might have cropped that top left small space of light, but that's just me.
