Photographer’s Note
Wanted to capture the amazingly densely populated apartments in Jordan.
I can't imagine living packed so tightly.

No colors on these buildings. It also looks as if they don't have any windows either. TFS, Gilbert

Looks like hell to me, but maybe I am wrong.
Anyway, I think you wanted to show that same feeling and you succeeded. It is even more dense without that strip of sky. Maybe crop it a bit more from top and left ?

Well, this is the way many, many people lives also in Europe, you could do it as well, it´s a question of survive. I love the photo Ryan, very interesting one, try to crop the sky in order to have only the constructions, you will see, I think you would love the outcome. Thanks for share.

well, i must say, you did a good job capturing an amazingly dense town.
i like what you shot here...i think zooming in a bit without the sky above would make this an interesting shot.
nonetheless, good work.
