Cairo Mosque - a photo on Flickriver

Cairo Mosque

            Taken in Summer 2008. Stopped at the side of the road to take a picture of the mosque at sunset and saw it shrouded in smoke which was coming from a fire at the parliament building nearby. I think the photo is better because of it! I haven't done any processing on the shot, it's as it was when it was taken.
