The Old Couple
The Hassan Mosque in Rabat was going to be one of the largest mosques in the world, until it was destroyed by the 1755 Lisbon earthquake and left unfinished. Its ruins are now in the grounds of the Mausoleum of Mohammed V, the previous king of Morocco, and there are lots of quiet places where people of all faiths can sit and reflect, or in this case, argue!
The cat was one of the many strays that lived among the ruins …
very beautiful, like a cover of National Geographic
Thanks! What a great compliment!
The wall actually looks very interesting.
for a second I thought it looks like a biscuit 😉
Such a well composed shot! It’s perfect – from the cat, to the details of the wall and the two men. I really like this image alot!
This is a wonderful photo, Alicia! And the black cat really puts the dot on the i. This is a real winner!
You captured wonderful gestures between the couple and also the cat. Perfection Alicia!
Thanks everyone for your really nice comments! This is one of my personal favourites.
A very good photo! Colours and composition – excellent!
this is such a beautiful juxtaposition of elements, each one interesting on its own and yet working together to create a story. I agree with the comment on the cat. It might be tiny but i think it takes away the oscar here !
Wonderful
Love this shot!
Love the composition of this photo– truly perfect.
Superb composition! Very lucky indeed to visit such beautiful place.. 🙂
You are most definitely giving me itchy feet…..!
It is definitely a fantastic place to visit!
Sterling!
