I went on a 4 day trip to one of the few places that never fails to amaze me.
Occupied by the Iraqi's during the Gulf War (1990-1991), this place is still as they left it and although it was cleared of land mines, they still do go off occasionally.

My guess is this is a desalination plant, I'm not exactly sure what it is yet.

These bottles are at least 19-20 years old from the looks of them, there were a few (not visible) that went out of business from the war, older than I am!!

Something a bit more pleasant to look at...
that's where I go if all the war scenes get too overwhelming

Thank you!
Yeah, I've been jumping from one photo trip to another :D
Half of these photos are HDR's but not to the point where it's obvious, any more than that and it would be a little too much for them imo
