pesu - Dec, 15 2008 07:12am Fine geometry and shades of beige. krisek - Dec, 15 2008 11:12am Petra, Ghadames (UNESCO-listed) is truly great. Many, many, many 'streets' look like this in this desert town. But some have arched ceilings... pesu - Dec, 15 2008 04:12pm Do you have a pic of the arched ones? krisek - Dec, 15 2008 04:12pm Yes, I do. When I get back home from work tonight, I will try to post some more pictures from Ghadames and other places ofLibya. jorgesanchez - Dec, 15 2008 06:12pm This is a fantastic picture taken in a fantastic place. basia - Dec, 15 2008 07:12pm Krys, whether the light is from the outside, whether derived from the light bulb? krisek - Dec, 15 2008 09:12pm Basia, the light comes from skylights. At night, the majority of streets (tunnels) are completely dark. Only occasionally there is a light bulb at an entry to an old household. Something tells me I should write a report about Ghadames... :) pesu - Dec, 15 2008 09:12pm Oh yes, and an album would be a fine idea, too :) basia - Dec, 15 2008 11:12pm The report will surely be interesting.
