Kylie Greenan's Next Challenge... "MY Special Place" Friday 7th November. Maybe it is the place you live, a room you love, a place you often go... [or somewhere special you have been] it could be somewhere you love to be, or a place that is "your space" and that means something to you.
"Mon endroit préféré" le vendredi 7 Novembre
Cela peut être l'endroit où vous vivez, une pièce que vous aimez, un endroit où vous allez, quelque part où vous aimez être... un endroit qui est "votre endroit", qui signifie quelque chose pour vous".

6 Nov 2008 6:02am
very beautiful huts apparently in a marvellous landscape.
I definitely have to go in Jordan!!!!
6 Nov 2008 6:33am
It was most impressive country, where I have been!
And those red - brown colours of landscapes are marvelous.
Did you go Petra? I was one day there and would like to go again, now with a digital camera!
And welcome to Scandinavia !
6 Nov 2008 6:42am
@LeenaM: yes yes!! i went to Petra and it was stunning! hope to go back next year!! :)
Wow! Amazing.... Nice earthy tones... Very interesting place...
6 Nov 2008 6:57am
They look basic DJ, but what a unique find, and what a great shot. Did you stay there....?
6 Nov 2008 7:15am
@Observing: yep!! mine was this one in front -- i couldn't have been happier! i felt like i was in some fairy tale of sorts -- simply an amazing experience! :)
Nice and original camp in the desert. The first hut seems to have a decreasing moon drawn on the roof. Harmony of colors.
6 Nov 2008 7:31am
@rem_la: hehe -- no mate sorry -- just 2 single beds and a small window! but boy were they faaabulous!!! :)
Amazing structure (architecture) in a harsh place.
6 Nov 2008 8:29am
a soft light, nice colors and very interesting subject. I love it
6 Nov 2008 8:30am
A good exemple of an harmonious architecture well integrated in the environement; But in the desert nothing better than to sleep in the open doors, a marvellous experience....
6 Nov 2008 8:51am
Le Wadi Rum offre de multiples contrastes, c'est un des plus beaux déserts que j'ai vus. Superbe composition avec ces étranges petites maisons d'ocre
6 Nov 2008 8:52am
Wonderful little huts! Really beautiful light!
6 Nov 2008 10:24am
Wow that is impressive, fabulous tones and textures, I love the huts, bravo Dj ;)
6 Nov 2008 12:23pm
Oh how I am loving this - Jordan would be an interesting place to go to... did you sleep in one of these?
6 Nov 2008 12:42pm
Debe ser muy especial lo que se debe sentir en un sitio asi, para las personas que no estámos acostumbradas a precindir de ciertas comodidades.
Saludos JJ.
6 Nov 2008 12:54pm
You certainly are seeing the world! This is a very interesting image. Have you one of the inside?
6 Nov 2008 1:17pm
You have been to so many places, shown us so much beauty that the world has to offer. What a cool image DJ!
6 Nov 2008 1:20pm
Welcome back DJ! I would like to stay in one of those huts! Beautiful shot!
6 Nov 2008 2:17pm
Fascinating. The huts seem so much like a natural part of the landscape. The defined "walkways" and "property lines" are particularly interesting since there is no difference between the landscape and the walkway, like a paved walk or gardens and grass. Makes me wonder why the delineation with the curbing.
6 Nov 2008 2:36pm
marveleous!
great shot of the little houses "not on the prairie" hihi
and I will search for my special place
6 Nov 2008 2:55pm
This is a great find.. interesting subject, great background mountains and great sky
6 Nov 2008 3:22pm
nice picture DJ, beautiful lightning and did you sleep well??
6 Nov 2008 3:33pm
@Yvonne S.: hello Yvonne! thank you and yes -- it was a 'deep & meaningful' sleep... i woke up feeling like a 'new' person! :)
what fabulous looking structures. and the light on the walls is fantastic.
6 Nov 2008 3:38pm
Nice shot, they look grown from the earth. The crescent moon is a nice add on :)
6 Nov 2008 4:29pm
A special place... I like your composition, and the warm colors with this beautiful sky.
6 Nov 2008 7:01pm
Really nice huts - hope they were comfortable! :-)
6 Nov 2008 7:13pm
Wonderful shot, the colours are incredible. Great work.
6 Nov 2008 7:31pm
Yes this is a very special place ! I would like to visit it too !
6 Nov 2008 9:41pm
A dream shot. Almost unreal, but so beautiful colors.
6 Nov 2008 10:02pm
What can I say that hasn't been said ??? Thanks for Sharing your wonderful travels with us !!
6 Nov 2008 10:07pm
Great symmetry in this picture. No frills in this guest house I would guess.
6 Nov 2008 10:29pm
Simple huts, beautifully laid out. A wonderfully composed shot dj :)
6 Nov 2008 10:49pm
Very good compo, the triangular huts with the rockies mountains in background!
7 Nov 2008 12:50am
what cute little guest huts, and a beautiful view behind, so beautiful
7 Nov 2008 12:53am
fantastic place! in such a rugged terrain... you presented it very well - great light and composition... the blue sky looks almost foreign in these surroundings...
7 Nov 2008 1:14am
DJ those colours together are amazing, the blue in the sky is magnificent as are these huts... are they made of mud and sticks? Totally cool, I would love to camp out in one of these, what a great experience and an awesome capture. Nice to see you back :o)... life's hectic hey, look forward to your post today and thanks for putting the info up on you page, so appreciated my friend. Have a good one!
7 Nov 2008 1:20am
Wonderful capture, realy nice strong colors... would like to go there and visit myself, looks like a really cool place
7 Nov 2008 2:17am
Beautiful image, interesting architecture. The polarized blue sky is amzing.
7 Nov 2008 2:21am
Welcome back and with a great picture too. This area appears to be at a high elevation. Interesting how these huts are constructed especially the angle of the roof. Like the perspective and the tones of this image, excellent work.
7 Nov 2008 3:11am
A wonderful composition. A strange place with an exceptional architecture.
7 Nov 2008 3:54am
This is a beautiful photo! Wonderfully taken and I like how crisp it is too!
7 Nov 2008 4:25am
Those warm colours are so beautiful. I love the sharpness and the great composition.
7 Nov 2008 4:39am
I'm guessing no flush toilets in these, huh? Love the angle for your shot of these interesting little buildings.
