Hello and sorry for being away in the past couple of weeks but I’m back again. Here are some solo photos from my first visit to Dubai in the UAE which was back in Feb 2016, it was a quick 2 day visit for a workshop and didn’t have anytime for my own photography but I managed to get a couple of shots around the metro which was a good experience, Enjoy!

An old man I came across in Jubail village in AlHasa, Saudi Arabia. This is someone I met before in my blog post Day 27 – AlHasa for my street life project & this time I saw him near his house in a different cloth, good thing is that he recognized me after speaking to him because our last meet was 2 years ago, I took the chance to take a few photos in a different way then before.
رجل مسن صادفته في قرية الجبيل بالأحساء، بعد ما تمعنته به جيداً تذكرت إنني إلتقيت به سابقاً في احدى جولاتي ونشرت له صورة في تدوينة اليوم ٢٧ من مشروع حياة الشارع في السعودية وهذه المرة كان قريباً من منزله بلبسه المعتاد المريح والذي يسمى (وزار) الأمر الجيد أنه تذكرني حيث كان لقائي به قبل سنتين تقريباً وإلتقطت له عدة صورة بشكل مختلف قليلاً عن السابق.

Hello all, so about 2 years ago I traveled with my family to Mashhad city in Iran for a week, it wasn’t a photography trip but I did spent a lot of times photographing the streets & I was really impressed with the results I got from there. I didn’t open this folder until a few weeks ago & wanted to share with you some of the results of those scenes I’ve captured, I already posted a blog about my trip there when I got back 7 Days to Mashhad. I did a lot of street photography but rarely I did people’s life because a lot & I mean a lot don’t understand English or Arabic. So here are some of the results & more photos will come in other posts!

Another portraits of an old man which I ran across at the door step of his house, for reasons I can’t really say I only spent like 5 mins with him and was hoping to spend a lot more but sadly this is what I got from one angle.
بورتريهات جديدة لرجل مسن صادفته على باب منزله، لأسباب معينة لم أستطع أن أبقى معه أكثر من ٥ دقائق وتمنيت لو كانت المدة أكثر، للأسف هذا كل ما إلتقطته من زاوية واحدة.

Project Selfie is something came up while started shooting street photography, I found myself in love in the way some of photographers shooting them selfs in the mirror holding the camera, so I started doing that every time I saw a mirror in the streets, events or even family gathering. So this only a glimpse and fresh photos I’ve captured in single photowalk.
مشروع سيلفي هو شيء طرأ أمامي عندما بدأت بتصوير حياة الشارع، وجدت نفسي مغرماً في الصور التي إلتقطها بعض المصورين القدامى أمام المرأة وهم حاملين الكاميرا، لذا بدأت بإلتقاط هذه الصورة كلما سنحت لي الفرصة سواء في الشارع او المناسبات او غيرها. هذه مجرد لمحة ومن صور جولة واحدة.
From the archive about 2 years ago, there was a heavy rain lasted for a day then the next day were cloudy so it was a great chance for me on the streets, here are some of the photos.
Another documentary on this subject which is very difficult for a lot to photograph, I already published some photos from another burial in 2015 check it out if you have time. This time I arrived early before moving the deceased to the graveyard, after the deceased get cleaned & washed by men who are there job to do so they prepare him to be carried away, won’t say more then the photos would! Photos taken in Jubail village – ِAlsharien graveyard, AlHasa, Saudi Arabia – 15 January 2017
وثائقي جديد عن هذا الموضوع الذي دوماً تكون هناك صعوبة شديدة في كل من يريد تصويره، لقد قمت مسبقاً بنشر صور من دفن تم في ٢٠١٥ قوموا بزيارتها ان كان لديكم الوقت. في هذه المرة وصلت مبكراً قبل بدء التشييع نحو المقبرة، وصلت في مغتسل الموتى بعد أنهى العاملون هناك من عملية غسيل المتوفى وتكفينه، لن أطيل الحديث، البقية في الصور! الصورة ملتقطة في قرية الجبيل – مقبرة الشهارين بالأحساء – ١٥ يناير ٢٠١٧
