Bahrain's buildings

Bahrain doesn't look like this yet, but it will in a couple of years. This is an artist's rendition of the new "Bahrain Financial Harbor" downtown. Here is another picture of Bahrain in the future.
This one is for real. I took it on the bus on the way to school this morning, and it was the best shot I could get to give a perspective on the buildings shooting up in Bahrain. If you look closely and start counting from the far left of the picture, you can count 8 or 9 cranes. Note the cranes on top of what I like to call the "lumpy" buildings. There is also one on top of the "triangle" building. The last time we drove through the downtown area, I counted 27 cranes.
One more of Bahrain's future. The two buildings on the far right are nearly finished, as well as the "triangle" building, and several more have been started.
