My Dubai Lynx 2009 Predictions: Ambient

As advertising agencies from across the region are busy submitting their work to the coming Dubai Lynx, I though of collecting some of the work that I really liked, in my humble opinion, the below ambient advertisements should be awarded or at least shortlisted. My personal opinion, nothing else. See also my predictions for print and TV.
