Would a small building designed by Emiratis with a touch of your distinctive culture not been somthing to be proud of?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15456688.post-966456716002309472010-01-05T15:03:26.780+04:002010-01-05T15:03:26.780+04:00@theplasticpoet...I'm not as young as you thin...@theplasticpoet...I'm not as young as you think.... :)<br /><br />Thanks all... :)<br /><br />@Talha... 17mm, 1/3sec, f4.5, ISO 200Stainedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17718001009325538247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15456688.post-14600161188215491282010-01-05T12:46:36.385+04:002010-01-05T12:46:36.385+04:00Great Shot Stained .... wondefully captured...Great Shot Stained .... wondefully captured...Jhanihttp://dubaijhani.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15456688.post-60307984400839019152010-01-05T11:22:12.753+04:002010-01-05T11:22:12.753+04:00Whao!
