The Hall is not very big, but clean and tidy, wife to duty-free shops to wander outside, I looked at the gray, desolate and empty airport, thought about anyway to find a corner shot him four times.

Sure enough, there are a couple of hours later the formalism, and the Hall of the people are gone, leaving our mission of the Chair or lie or sit in the open lobby on the second floor, I installed a wide angle lens, at the airport around took a good, Doha Airport is a little more interesting, although flight notification Hall including other aviation, but looking around the airport runway area, it seems that only Qatar Airways aircraft.
