Mosque by the Gold Souk.JPG

Dubai, United Arab Emirates

I asked some of the locals if they minded my taking a picture of the mosque. One said I wasn't allowed, another said it was okay; leaving them to discuss it amongst themselves, I thought "what the hell, it's meant to be a tourist destination so I'll take a snap and see what happens". One picture later, I still had my camera and my limbs and so went about my merry way.

I liked this one owing to its quasi-European fairytale look...at least at first glance.
