As determined by the ice crystal geometry, a bright gibbous Moon illuminates the scene from beyond the picture's right edge, 22 degrees from the lovely paraselene.

The building is decorated with tessellated plates of aluminium, a pattern inspired by the geometry of an insulin crystal and the musharabiya latticework of the region's past.

Acoording to the crystal symmetry, diffraction geometry and the diffraction laws, the complicated divergent beam X-ray diffraction has been studied.
