About From the deck of a boat on the nile, I could capture this shot of this minaret appearing just behind those railings.
Minaret is a tower near to, or built into, the structures of a mosque, which is used by the muezzin to call out the adhan in order to make people to come to prayers in Islam.
Minarets are now very much symbols of Islam, even if they are not important in theology. They are often adorned, high and striving to be as slim and elegant as possible.
On top of the minaret, there is a tiny room from where the muezzin either is or where the loudspeakers are. This room is covered with a pointed roof.

I like the way the lines in the foreground and the minaret to the rear give a "old and new" feel to the image. The colour is magnificent.

Beautiful Image Khaled, great silhouette and lines married with the warm colors, I'm not a big fan of framing but that's just my taste, the important thing here is the image.
great job! :)
my best regards.
