    Looks like old video game graphics. Regardless, I find the lack of any sort of greenery and vegetation highly disturbing. Like come on, not even a teeny tiny tree

      This is almost certainly in Kuwait (NBK = National Bank of Kuwait), so when it comes to greenery, the manicured and constantly watered grass I’ve seen in other nearby cities concerns me a bit more. What with the labor heavy maintenance under the sun and the desalination needed to water the grass. At least concrete doesn’t need that.

      The image quality is what I take issue with. I thought what a nice and sharp image. Then I zoomed in to read the signs and it’s clearly been unartfully run through a very aggressive upscaling process. Chunky JPGness would have been fine.
