Photographing the Blue Mosque – Best Angles & Golden Hour

Shoot with soft light and soft manners. Golden hour paints the courtyard; interiors prefer high ISO rather than flash. Avoid pointing directly at worshippers.

Exterior Angles

• Align minarets across arcades; use humans as scale.
• Frame domes with trees along the square.

Interior Details

• Tile macro shots (patterns, calligraphy bands).
• Dome geometries; avoid blocking lanes.

Bottom Line
