Meknes
Evening light, Meknes, Morocco pictured on December 22, 2009. A man in traditional costume is silhouetted by the long rays of the evening sunlight as he walks through the shadowy street. Meknes, one of Morocco's Imperial cities, was redeveloped under Sultan Ismail Moulay (1634-1727). It is a fortified city built from pise, or clay and straw, and was designed to be the political capital of Morocco, as opposed to Fez, the religious capital. Picture by Manuel Cohen
