Shadows at Al Yamamah Garden by Helen Betts


15-AUG-2015

The brilliant sun always makes for the most striking shadows here.

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
