I have been stuck at the image for about ten minutes,trying to interpret your title but I couldn't ,I have felt that I know something about you (from my previous following of your images of Uzbekistan and other ) .

The image is greatly symbolic about faith freedom as the bird is free in the huge space of air ,we born just very small and vulnerable humans of a zero background,and it is up to our parents to make us Muslims,Christians ,Jews,or whatever they like ,and I find this contradict titling the minaret a black tower,but I know for sure that you are totally free to call it what ever you like .

 

by the way the calligraphy on the walls says this from a translation

(The Beneficent

Taught the Quran.

He created man,

Taught him expression.

The sun and the moon follow a reckoning,

And the herbs and the trees adore (Him).

And the heaven, He raised it high, and He set up the measure,

That you may not exceed the measure,

And keep up the balance with equity, nor fall short in the measure ).

 

 

what is appearing in the calligraphy is the last three lines written in Arabic Modern Kufi calligraphy. A great teaching about not cheating each other,but unfortunately we do not listen and there are great deal of cheating among our human history everywhere,and every time.

 

Stay well and fine.

Thank you, Saad for an interesting comment.
I always appreciate reactions, positive and negative, to my photos. There is no deeper meaning behind the title, and I'm sorry if I have offended anyone. I have sent you an email.

Best regards

Thank you Tony. It's a matter of taste, and I'm not sure if I agree with you about the blue color.

Regards Eystein
