  • Jacques, you have here depicted what we could call the 'real' Arabia. The desert, Oasis, & palms etc are how most of us think about it. Lovely travelogue you have produced, well done. Eric

  • A very strongly contrasting kind of scenery of brown desolate countryside broken with arresting greens of the date palm. It is definitely a desert country where one sees the majesty of Nature in full force. I would be very wary of driving here. Both of you are brave travellers!

  • Well, this is a far cry from the luxurious hotels and buildings in the capital city! Maybe this is the real Arabia, the one most of us are familiar with from books, movies and photos.Impressive takes of the rugged landscape and as impressive is what man can do in the desert!!!Those gardens are unbelievable!Jacques, you're doing an excellent job AGAIN with these albums and you keep us constantly interested in what might follow!Amicalement, Gabriela

  • Fantastic visual trip you present here Jacques!!! I have done the effort (in the past) to have traveled in the Sahara for appreciation such-type country as you show in your scenes here. I made (my) comments and observations on most your pictures here. My mind and imagination gets quite absorbed in such scenes as you so nicely photographed here! Glad someone like you enjoys such ventures and takes all the work it takes to exhibit your pictures and write interesting commentary and storys to accompany.... Be assured (I) appreciate your efforts! Thank you (again) for another adventure, is also an education), from another interesting area and culture on our "planet!" Sincerely, Gary in Seattle :) (PS: I know you appreciate feedback, and you have thanked me several times in the past. You have done enough work here... no need to thank me again. Get some rest! :)
