Hello bubble friends, Long time I didn’t upload a real portrait…. I took this time a couple of days ago in Eritrea in the school where we were organizing our art activities. / Some people call them the “ninjas”. Some people throw them stones while they are dressed like that… some people do throw them stones or spit on them when they uncover their faces…. In what world do we leave ? / Just leave the woman alone ! Leave the children alone ! Set them free…. Give them a voice !!! it is what Art in All of Us (www.artinallofus.org) modestly try to do !

As the sun rises on the Taj Mahal, the best view is behind the monument.
Sunrise over Fes, Morocco. Adhan (Athaan) is the Islamic call to prayer, recited by the muezzin. The root of the word is ʼḏn “to permit”, and another derivative of this word is uḏun, meaning “ear.” This is the minaret of Kairouyine mosque in Fes. The university which is attached, was founded in 859AD and ‘is considered the oldest continuously operating institution of higher learning in the world by the Guinness Book of World Records.’ (Care of Wikipedia) / Adhan I
This is an older image of mine from when I first started to become serious about photography. What struck me about this composition is the shadow of the living tree that crawls up the waterfall as the dead tree is falling down.

I’ll always remember these types of scenes when I look back on Egypt. I don’t remember a skyline that was not pierced by one or many minarets. The morning call for prayer (more than any other of the day as I was quite asleep) seemed to boom from these places. And the life of every city or village revolved around them. From the minaret, to the bright Mediterranean colors and the rough textures, this was Egypt for me. This one happens to be on Elephantine Island at Aswan.
The Minarets are the jagged peaks in the mountain range near the center. There are 17 of them and the tallest is Clyde Minaret at 12,281 ft. They are part of the Ritter Range which is the oldest range of mountains in the Sierra Nevadas. They were formed by millions of years of glacial carving, winds, ice, and earthquakes.
