Description
Detail of some of the more than 800 bows of the "Mezquita", a former mosque (in the middle ages) in Cordoba, southern Spain. Absolutely stunning building; has been partly damaged in the 15th century by trying to re-build it as a christian church.

Very nice composition. I visited there a few years ago & agree it's an amazing place, but I wasn't able to get a good photo due to the dim lighting. You seem to have been able to overcome that very well.
