For photos of beautiful, still-inhabited locales! It can be a quick snapshot of your local town, a breathtaking pro photo of a city, or a pic of some fascinating piece of modern life.

The only real rule is that it must be an actively inhabited/used location (ie not ruins or natural locales). Otherwise, go wild. Anything that you find beautiful or interesting!

Looks like a Star Wars set.

Yes, although it's the other way around.

Tatooine is actually based on a real place in Tunisia (Tataouine) which is also near/inside the Sahara desert

Although I don't imagine they get a lot of hurricanes in Mali, that shape has been suggested to be something like hurricane and tornado resistant if not -proof.

I know the Sahara can get some nasty wind storms.

Haboobs are serious business.

Boob joke, house with a face comment or Star Wars reference, I can't decide!

"These aren't the titty-face houses you're looking for."

Nailed it, no regrets.
