Cloudy building

A building I have photographed before, but from a different perspective. It’s rare but wonderful when we have clouds like this.

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
