saudi arabia Al Masmak fort (Riyadh) The door where the struggle between Abdul Aziz Al Saud and the Rashids was centered

If you look at the larger version, just to the left of the lock, you can see Abdullah bin Jelawi's

spearpoint embedded in the door of the fort. The rescue of Abdul Aziz Al Saud from the

Rashids is one of the momentous acts in the history of this ancient land of Arabia.

Nice colors.

Beautiful light. Very nice work. Xiang Gao

VERY NICE IMAGE. Thank you for your comments on my work. The raters can be really confounding at times I agree. On the Dreams at Dawn phot I used a softening and warming filter to get a dreamlike effect. I enjoy your images as they cover some of the same interests that peak my attention. Keep up the good work. rek
