The other side

Olaya Towers from the King Fahd Road side. The sun was just setting, and the sky just looks a bit odd in all my captures, plus the obnoxious lights on either side were really a problem. No chance of using a tripod here! Still, I liked this straight-on view of these striking towers.

You really selected a wonderful time for this capture with some light still in the sky and the wonderful lights on these structures. Well composed with excellent clarity for a hand held capture Helen. Voted+
