What guided this image
- Landmarks
- Badshahi Mosque; Alamgiri Gate of Lahore Fort; Maharaja Ranjit Singh; Greater Iqbal Park; UNESCO World Heritage Shalimar Gardens; Androon Shehr; lush Punjabi Doab plain flora
- Viewpoint
- The Badshahi Mosque and Alamgiri Gate across Hazuri Bagh, or the view across Greater Iqbal Park toward the mosque and Minar-e-Pakistan, should occupy most of the image while leaving enough open space, soft sky, and exposed watercolor paper to create depth.
- Palette
- Green should be the predominant color, especially in the thick canopies of neem and banyan trees in Greater Iqbal Park and Hazuri Bagh, charbagh lawn quadrants, and courtyard foliage.
- Guarded against
- Not Karachi, Islamabad, or Peshawar
