Photographer's Note
In the town of El Jadida there's an interesting old water cistern, with nice columns and vaults.
The best is that hole thru the ceiling. Depending on weather conditions and the hour, the sun beams get inside and can produce nice light effects.
After a short searching for an angle I caught this particular one. I wasn't able to exactly determine how these reflections were produced by the sun rays, although I guess the shallow water played a role.
ps - Scanned. I post the color version, to keep the authenticity and the old painting feeling; a B&W "moonlight" version is even more mysterious. Tips to improve it are most welcomed.

Great shot. When i look to this picture i think it's a great place for a treasure in a movie like Tomb Raider. The only problem is the noise in the picture, but i like it anyway.
Best regards

Hi Daniel,
Those three light circles make it very wonderful.
I bet that this is one of those many cases where the scan lost much of the charm of the original, right?
TFS, Regards, Josι.

That's really cool Daniel. Shame you can't see a larger version of it. Looks like something from Raiders of the lost arc.
