These are great shots, the reflections are really nice, the colours are unlike anything I have seen. It looks so peaceful. Wonderful.

Nice set, the pastel colours make a nice change to the usual reflection images I am used to seeing

Thanks for the appreciation, billmac57. Indeed,the tranquility and soothing colors are in sharp contras to the desert that surrounds this development.

Thanks, Silverz. The Middle East is famous for its loud, bold and pungent human footprint, but this place makes a nice change.

Thank you, angle. I took these shots after sunset in residual daylight, and that helped with the soft colors in the images. So happy you liked them.

Thanks for looking sheldonc. This is the commercial wing of a residential development, attached to a Marriott Courtyard hotel in Jebel Ali, which is a town close to Dubai. They have sprinkled this place with so many water features, and considerable greenry that you forget that you are in the middle of a desert. Not surprisingly, this place is called The Green Community.
