Natural water source in AlHasa – Documentary

It’s been a while since I’ve gone out for photography, about 3 months because of the hot weather ( I hate summer ) but I convinced myself to photograph this story because it’s best to do it in within these days before the weather cool down, this is one of the 2 remaining natural water source from underground in AlHasa where locals use it to swim in it & take bath before it goes for nearby farms, I’ve planned to shoot in both morning & evening and it was really worth it! Here are some of the photos.

مضى وقت ليس بالقصير منذ اخر مرة قمت بالتصوير، قرابة ٣ شهور بسبب حرارة الجو ( أكره الصيف ) لكن أقنعت نفسي بالخروج وتصوير هذا الموضوع بسبب أنه يناسب هذه الأجواء، هذا المكان هو أحد اثنين من العيون الجوفية المتبقية بالأحساء في قرية البطالية والتي كانت في الماضي ذات أعداد كبيرة! السكان المحليين يستخدمونها للسباحة والاستحمام قبل أن يذهب الماء في شبكات صرف لسقي النخيل في المزارع القريبة، خططت للتصوير في فترتي الصباح والمساء وكان الأمر يستحق كثيراً، هذه بعض النتائج.
