Hello there, from Manama souq

Photo 10/52 | Hello there

Waiting in a tiny tailor’s shop in Manama souq. The guy cleaning in the sandwich shop across the way couldn’t help but stare. It’s common for folks to simply stare, in Bahrain. All you can do is look back, smile, pick up your camera, and […]

Ancient, old, and new

The bright side

September 2016 | Lisbon, Portugal

Street photography is not my forte. It’s not something I practice a lot. And I just don’t have the confidence of a street photographer. Once in a while I like to try my hand at street photography. Ignore the self-conscious feeling of a thousand eyes […]
