Underground things

Another view of the Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources. One of those places I couldn’t get too close to photograph, although the first time, I didn’t have a clue what it was.

A view of this striking building, taken long ago:

Nikon D810 ,Nikkor AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8G ED
1/200s f/10.0 at 48.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

This must be an important ministry in a country like Saudi Arabia.V.

Wow! The barb wire seems scary. V

what a cascade of structures...seems, rightly or wrongly, like the heartbeat of current western living...

Impressive building - but a pity they find it necessary to surround with barbed wire fences.
