dark light

Some oldies from Dhaharan-Saudi Arabia 1993

Mostly taken from the balcony of my apartment I lived in, scanned 35mm negatives, many thanks to Photoshop CS2 🙂

i only stayed in the apartment for less than a year, most movements at Dhahran were in the early hours, so it wasnt too good for sleep, also, you had to be a bit careful taking pics, I’ve got a load more to edit, takes a while cos the negatives are in really bad condition (cheap film)

Crossed wires there then!!! Red X was a term used in Aircraft Engineering records in Saudi, meant the aircraft had a “serious” defect
