So this was an early morning walk in Manama Souq in the area which has the famous Bab AlBahrain, in this walk I used my 24mm lens on my 5DIII which was the first time to shoot streets using this lens and it was also the last time, in short I didn’t like that range, it can’t compete to the 35mm focal range. Anyway enough with the technical stuff and here are some of the scenes I managed to capture during that morning including a bonus at the end. Enjoy!

A bonus photos, I ran into a local bahraini man which sells raw tobacco which is usually uncommon to see nowadays and only a handful of people who owns this kind of shops, he says himself and only a few persons in Bahrain import tobacco offshore and they are used to the costumers who came to him regularly.
