The Coiled Golden Chalice of Qatar

This is such an extreme title for what is a fairly commonplace thing in Doha, I am sure. I thought the internal architecture here and this vase was really spectacular, so I did my best to caputre the scene to share with you all!

Ethereal and magnificent. It surely conveys the significance that the object holds for worshippers.

Looks like a scene from the next Indiana Jones movie, by the way I met a new photographer at the beach and told him to check out flickr. I mentioned he should look into HDR work and his girlfriend said " yeah Stuck in Customs", I thought you'd appreciate that.

it's just too symmetrical, it's not as good as your other ones

Joan Giralt says:

Yep, great process (as usual) but the shot isn't very clear... I also thought those were coffee beans, but before that my 1st impression was like a space lab with a satelite :)

Anyway I always learn something from you.

This is common place there? This seems quite spectacular. It is quite exotic to me. Beautiful work- all your shots.
