Waterfall windows, Palace of Culture

An old picture I never got around to processing of unusual windows at the Palace of Culture in Al-Kindi Plaza.

We have been having incredibly heavy rain in Riyadh recently, with severe flooding. For an excellent (short) clip of the devastation, see http://www.theguardian.com/world/video/2015/nov/26/tunnel-floods-in-saudi-arabia-amid-heavy-rain-trapping-cars-video

So light and bright - love the curves and water falling down the windows, although with recent flooding, water probably isn't quite so welcome!
