Baku, Azerbaijan

A few pictures from a very short visit to a distant country - too much time in the air for not enough time on the ground.
I wish I'd been able to stay longer.

The setting sun shot is quite remarkable. The buildings appear to have been lathered with goldleaf in places and smoldering as though on fire inside in other places. You captured a fleeting moment at sunset from great distance and the effect is both stunning and evocative. Congratulations.
