What a terrific collection. That first image in particular, but also the woman on the beach really sticks with me.

Thank you very much! I have to say I agree about the woman on the beach. It’s not considered good manners to take candids of Emirati ladies, but she cut such a figure on the beach at sunrise that I couldn’t resist.

Thanks so much, Lucy. I find seeing a new place really bolsters the photography. But staying closer to home makes you see more of the detail, however familiar.
