Day 6 - Contrasting Realities


an early start
a jinn at the airport
the aeiral map of a holy place
a never ending drive
mesmerized by the new city
copper sulphate weaves it magic
palaces fit for emirs only
lost in the thoughts of someone
city of lights - in the middle of nowhere
back to home base

Day 5 - Arms of Luxury



another sleepless night
but with a difference
an epic discussion
reaching out for new horizons
a cheap photoshoot
an eye opener by the pool side
an hour of lounging paparazzi
a scarfed angel - *sigh*
lost directions - over and over again
rocking lasagna

Day 3 - A New Beginning


a wild goose chase
long bitching sessions
age of empires
an evening walk
another bitching session
a new eye - focused hunting
corniching the waves
a tutorial for a photographic eye

Day 2 - A New Challenge


a road trip that lasted hours
cities, valleys, villages, wadi's in the midst of the metro
symbols of opulence
search for that perfect ....... camera
a long discussion, with no results
hearing news.... dispair, reprisal, losing hope, giving up, illusionary happiness
tirelessly getting ready for a great challenge
calm and collected
coming through unscathed

Day 1 - Heaven in the Making


Sleepless dreams
thoughts of impending doom
a lady in pink
heaven in the clouds
a toppled food cart
palak qeema
avoiding an x-trail collision
all that glitters
sharjah - hopelessness revived (sigh)

Day 0 - Before it all began


A lost friend.... regained
disappontment,
exhiliration at a surprise phone call,
matching timings with ...well...the scum of the nation :P
mojo jojo's rising
a day that never ended....
