    Beautiful!

  2. Chamika Says:

    Nice moody atmosphere. And the rocky depression looks very much like a giant footprint eroded overtime.

  3. Anurag Anurag Says:

    Good use of the wide angle lens. Would have loved to hear some of the backstory.

  4. Su Su Says:

    Great shot looks a very barren place.

  5. Mandy Kilpatrick Mandy Kilpatrick Says:

    What a sweeping vista full of mood and drama! I love the shapes here – the giant “footprint” puddle, and the shapes of those beautiful and unusual green trees. The stormy dky and those mountains in the distance look so magical and mysterious! Great Photo!!

    I think KSA stands for Kingdom of Saudi Arabia… that’s the way they use to refer to it in the region, I think. Beutiful shot, by the way.

  10. Kirk Jordan Says:

    This looks like the kind of pool you would like to find when staggering across the desert!

  11. Renee Renee Says:

    It sure does look like a footprint, i like the trees they really stand out.

  12. Marie Dunphy Harding Says:

    It hard to believe those unusual looking trees growing on this barren area; Wonderful Earth shot, thank you.
