Creative Notes

The clear blue sky, the shining gold of the dome and the rough stone archway provide a great deal of contrast. This photo is a very fragmented view of the Dome of the Rock and only shows the top of the building. It is meant to be a composition which contrasts the textures and colors of the dome with the surrounding architecture. The inclusion of the sundial provides a second point of interest in what would otherwise be a photograph that does not hold the attention for very long.
