Description I am starting with a photo that, in my eyes, represents the essence of Morocco, and of the trip I took there.

It's a fascinating country. Visit it if you can.



Photo taken in a muslim school in Fes, Morocco.

Same location as here and here

O persoană reala? La prima vedere am gândit ca este o pictura
Uimitoare faţadă! Atât de mulţi detaliu! Buna compoziţie, arata bine deoarece.... the man stands off-center in the off-center window. (Ce spune asta in romana?)

*am crezut ca este... (fits much better)
*multe detalii

off center = descentrat
So it would be...
Barbatul sta descentrat in fereastra descentrata.

I love how the little touched of colour in the stonework match his scarf. Almost like he's back of the very much part of the place. Nice image

I can't believe someone went through the pain of doing that whole facade.

There are countless buildings with such walls around Morocco. It's crazy

Deci ai ajuns si in Fez... Superbe detalii de arhitectura intr-adevar, iar silueta imbracata in haine viu colorate a acestui venerabil invatator (I think) da un punct central foarte frumos fotografiei. Plus ca mai atrage privirile prin simplitatea hainelor de la detaliile foarte complicate ale cladirii. Superba fotografie.

very cool pic i like the wall details... oh well i know that the ideia is stupid, but check out this blog white also pics from marrocos [link] oh well the blog is in portuguese, but i will explain the main ideia, two guys on bike, having only1000 euros to spend trying to get from Lisbon to Dakar, is a joke to the fiasco of this year dakar... but they have some cool shots, not "clichés" ones. Sorry for the huge comment, and pub.
