My 2012 in pictures compilation is a review of the places I visited in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, specifically its capital city, Riyadh. So far I only have less than 10 ordinary places on the list. I am here to work and save so I made sure that objective is intact. This explains why I did not and will not push my purse for traveling per se as I believe run-of-the-mill places can also turn into highlight.
Here are the best of what I saw in the Center of the East last year:
Red Sand, Dirab, Riyadh-01 June 2012
Hidden Valley, Dirab, Riyadh-19 October 2012
Almarai Company, Central Processing Plant, Riyadh-16 August 2012
Kamsa Kamsa Park, Hair, Riyadh-26 October 2012

Happy New Year, Sony! Such strikingly beautiful photos, a nature wonderland, and glimpse of Saudi! Thanks for taking me there with you! Hey, did you read my poems? Did you ever try a hand at poetry? Sure would be interesting to see what an iconoclastic writer like you could do!

As all the others said – awesome pictures- the sand is beautiful…trying to imagine the heat- thanks for sharing.
Nice shots, I really like your eye for unusual details.
You asked for critique, all I can say is that if you didn’t intend to overexpose your shots you should look into learning how to bracket your photos (and I think the man, the flower, and the brick structure would all look good with more detail).
