~ skyine ~, a photo from Xorazm, West

Photographer's Note

Skyline of Khiva Ichan Khala old city in winter as viewed eastwards from atop of 13th century Kunya Ark ancient palace. The commanding view of 44 m height Islam Khoja minaret- the tallest in Khiva and vibrant
green turquoise domes shimmer in the extreme cold weather.

Khiva, akin to a living museum, is a delightful labyrinth of narrow mud-walled alleyways that will sweep you back in time to the Silk Road story....

Setting: 105 mm, 1/80 sec, F8, ISO Raw 200, 1349 hrs

Hello Abmdsudi,
A great view of the city and its skyline with the beautiful dome and minaret, which stand out so well from the cloudy winter sky thanks to the wonderful colours and patterns. I like the dreamy mood of the shot.

Hello Abmdsudi, Have you climbed this minaret? I had, although it was rather difficult. Lovely view from Khiva.

Kind regards Malgo

Hi Abmdsudi.
Although the weather was not the best, the view of this mythical city is spectacular, especially with its large minaret, a great place to enjoy photography.
A good management, both of the luminosity, as of the sharpness, for de conditions
Very well done. I like.
Enjoy the weekend.
My best wishes for you.
