Is this the first time that this Red Stone Stadium was featured over the worldwide web? I searched on Google, and this was the only article about this stadium that came out. QL and Qatar should be very proud of you Greeker for posting this one!
I wish they put that money on HMC, increasing the facilities and number of doctors at the evening clinic.
Eeven when you go with a strong angina, after the first aids at emergency the appointment to see the specialist will be after 2 months...wht a joke. duh!!
If anyone is planning to go Al Shamal to see this Fort Stadium next weekend, let me know as I am not good in directions. I may follow you in my car. PM me if some one is going next weekend or so.
It is not the first Fort Stadium. There are 3 in the States 1 in Canada and Australia and who knows . This is just typical Qtr BS. Its Doha being the centre of the universe crap.
Thanks for the pic Greeker, I passed that building one friday, a while back, while out for a drive and wandered what it was. Heres a link with more info on the football team that is going to call it home.....http://www.goalzz.com/main.aspx?team=226
but there's something that always struck me as odd... whenever I travel to the east or the west... the sky is always blue whereas here in the Middle East, it looks grey!!
During sunrise though, its bluer... I think...
And in the night, you hardly see any stars here... whereas I remember when I was in college back in India, I could lie on the terrace for hours staring at the sky
that being said, if any of you try driving around Doha just after a strong shower, just have a look around to see the vibrancy of colours... the corniche looks soooo different after some rain... its beginning to be that time of year soon so look out for that...
its almost as if everything here is veiled in a thin layer of dust...
Anyway... Greeker I believe there is something you can do about blue using lens or filters or something...
Wanderer, thanks. Got the PM loud and clear and replied too.
rMS, thank you.
Britexpat, Thank you. It is not the original colour of the fort. It has been slightly corrected using picasa. But if anything, the real colour is more impressive.
Darude, you and what army? hehe.
Jared, no photoshop. Only picasa. No major corrections. Only basic stuff.
Jack, good point. Although I feel there are quite a few open grounds, the one near ASPIRE is good.
Someone new, like Novita said, the uniqueness quotient with such a building is high. If it’ll increase interest in a place like Al Shamal, so far removed from the Doha mainland, it’s a nice thing, isn’t it?
Salax85, I don’t think it’s so corny, but if you feel so, I cannot do anything to change your opinion. I feel it’s a magnificent structure.
They were working and they became self conscious when they saw me with the camera. I was practically lying on the ground and asked them to continue. That's how I got the picture.
But no, they did not pose. They were doing that before I passed by and continued to do what they were doing even when I was there.

It is a good idea to build in Qatar a stadium for cricket or larger stadium for other sports.
If there is any project in that matter I can build this through our company. Welcome to contact me at: [email protected]

Great. One more feather to the heritage theme???

Nice shoot Greek :-)
Next time you shoot something which opens the eyes of Asghal and Municipality !!
Good pic greeker, thanks

Verisimilitude, when i was over here (Doha) in April, I could see lots of stars. Its a lovely building, I like the look of old buildings.
Greek super pic
Hope they plan their interiors with this colour theme
e.g Reception Desk in Orange surrounded by blue accessories

Nice pic... good thought...
Fubar.... we need a good Cricket stadium in Qatar for international Cricket tournaments.
were you on vacation? didn’t see any of your serious debates lately..
why?
do they really need any more stadiums in this country?
i wonder if this construction is made of bricks or is it pure concrete and decorated by an outer layer of bricks?
it's new, OK. but was it build as ancient people builded?
GOOD ONE

why can't they build more mental hospital instead of stadiums since the majority here are crazy people
Good work....
But I would really like them to build More "open grounds" than Stadiums...the ratio should be 3 open football size ground to 1 stadium.
I think Doha must be the only country in the world with more stadiums than open playgrounds!!
Building all these "world class" stadiums are of no use if the kids don't take to sports as a mode of enjoyment.
You are very good in photoshop.
Which brush did you used?
Ribbon ready for me i am coming with my scissors soon.and if you didnt than i am afraid to say i will use that scissors on your PART AND CUT IT OFF :D
Thanks... Looks like a great piece of architecture.. Love the colour....
Nice pix Greeker ! :)

Nice Picture. How far is it from Doha? Where in Al Shamal is it? I have sent you a PM. Please could you respond? Thank you.
Edifis, thank you.

they built old looking new souq, why cant they built old looking new stadium?
nice pic greeker but i kinda dont like the idea of an old looking new building meant solely to attract tourist attention.
"Ali Baba and 40 thieves" are now "Ali Baba and 30 thieves" ; 10 were laid off.
Yes, excellent picture Greeker.....
Thanks for sharing!
The picture is great. Nice color composition, perfect space distribution. Hats off, Greeker.
They were working and they became self conscious when they saw me with the camera. I was practically lying on the ground and asked them to continue. That's how I got the picture.
But no, they did not pose. They were doing that before I passed by and continued to do what they were doing even when I was there.
is it me or that first 4 labours in the picture looks like somebody put it on there? they are exactly in the same distance with each other.
Greeker : Did you ask them to pose ???
Thanks for all your comments. Appreciate it.
WOW.... it definitely will add more to the already vibrant qatari culture... Kudos..
