Very impressive Simon!

I am always fascinated by this kind of remote, desert like architecture. The ripples add a nice touch and break a bit of the suspense in the rest of this photo.

A wonderful shot and a succinct but informative note, introducing me to an unfamiliar part of Yemen. Thank you. I suggest straightening the perspective a little on the right and have taken the liberty of doing a workshop. I hope you like it.

Regards.
