Masjid Wazir Khan (مسجد وزیر خان) in Lahore was built in a period of seven years, starting around 1634-35 AD, by Hakim Sheikh Ilam-ud-Din Ansari (aka Nawab Wazir Khan) during the reign of Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan. Nawab Wazir Khan was the governor of Lahore until 1639 AD. Fresco, Kashi kari, Brick-imitation (tazakari), vivid colors, large number of inscriptions, geometrical patterns, floral designs, arabesque and calligraphy have been used for its embellishment. It has been described as ‘a mole on the cheek of Lahore’. This particular one is a secondary turnip-shaped dome (besides the central one) having a diameter of 19 feet 3 inch and a height of 21 feet.

Whilst exploring the Muslim market on the bankd of the Mekong in Phnom Penh I saw this lady. The first shots I took where with her lower on the steps, I liked them but it wasn't working for me. So walked away and came back 15 minutes later when she was sitting on her porch.
