Sunset views of an alternative nature here. Blame it on the number of high-rise apartment blocks that have gone up in the area. Once upon a time, even while working, I had a great view of the sunset. (And the sunsets in Bahrain are not […]

November 2018 | Bentota, Sri Lanka
Bring me that horizon. Endless and faraway, it seems like a place with so many possibilities. I could have stared out at that horizon for hours at a time. In fact, I might have. Occasionally, you’d see a boat or freighter somewhere far off in […]
November 2018 | Bentota, Sri Lanka
As close to paradise as I’ve ever been is where this is. Bentota, a beautiful coastal town on Sri Lanka’s south-western coast. Wide, white sand beaches. Green, blue sea. And palm trees for as far as the eyes could see. This was just one side […]
Photo 5/52 | A Tiny Town

January 2019 | Manama, Bahrain
A dust storm blew in on this day. From out of nowhere, the sky turned orange. I looked up from my laptop during the day, and it was as if someone was shining a very bright orange light through the window. At night, all the […]
December 2016 | Juffair, Bahrain
Sometimes you take a photo and it’s a great image, but other than looking at it and knowing it’s a great image, you can’t say much more than that. This is that image for me. I like looking at it. I remember the gusts of […]
