Sharif Gate

I was trying to photograph the Sharif Gate when right as I pressed the shutter, these two men appeared out of nowhere. I sort of apologized and we started talking, and they asked me to take their picture. Then they wanted to take ours with both of them with their cell phones. Everybody got the shots they wanted, we had a nice time doing it, and we all went on our way.

The 2 men add a great deal to this wonderfully composed image! Bravo Helen for making more new "shutterbug" friends! V

Great capture. I like how small they look in comparison to the building.

nice bold lines on this gate and a cross-reference to the historic world of Europe
