weekend visit to the zoo

My Scholarship entry - Visit to Abu Dhabi Zoo

United Arab Emirates | Tuesday, November 18, 2014 | flickr photos

Moving to a new country in my mid-thirties has brought me closer to taking photography seriously. Photography is one of the best forms of storytelling. My interest in photography is basically to frame some stories as they happen, and narrate it people in a different part of the world therefore making them part of my moment. I am a free spirited photographer who should be chosen because my interest is not what happens behind the camera or in front, but much later while sharing the moments with many others and bringing them to experience it through photography without moving an inch.

I have travelled to different countries and I enjoy sharing pictures with my loved ones. I maintain two blogs which are all about experiences in different places and in my current city - Dubai. Photography helps me to communicate freely and connect easily with more and more people. As a father of a one-year old I am constantly challenged in capturing the right moment as it happens. My interest in nature and animals also makes me more aware and observant - which I think is the most important part of photography.
