02 The place

Jameh Mosque of Yazd, in black and white

This mosque is considered to belong to the timurid era(1500 A.C),because of it's inscriptions and architecture style.But the main building is built in early islamic era and some believe that it is built on a fire temple.

The mosque's dome is made of two layers of covers and it's altar has fascinating mosaic tiling.

The Dome of the mosque has amazing arabesque patterns and four skylights which show geometric shapes beautifully.The Quran verses which is written all around the dome,adds to it's glory and beauty

Making the photograph

When I entered the mosque i was so amazed by the fantastic work of art which was in it's ceiling.The ceiling was the first thing that got my attention and by the time I saw that view,I wanted to photograph it.
