This low-angle, wide shot captures the Kalta Minor Minaret in the city of Khiva, Uzbekistan, bathed in bright sunlight under a partly cloudy sky. The minaret, a cylindrical brick structure adorned with intricate blue and white geometric patterns, dominates the right side of the frame. To the left, a section of a brick building with a balcony and decorative blue tiles is visible, creating a strong diagonal line that leads the eye towards the minaret. Wooden stairs ascend alongside the building, connecting to a higher level. In the foreground, a paved courtyard features gold stanchions with red rope barriers. A man in a white t-shirt and dark pants leans against the rope near the entrance to a building on the right. Another person is visible further inside this building. The sun is high in the sky, casting sharp shadows and creating a lens flare effect.
