My One Year and Different Faces in KSA

    It's my anniversary now when I came here in Saudi Arabia for job oppurtunity, all I can say that I learn a lot from small to big things, learn to understand all the facts being an Expatriate.

  The biggest facts that I've see is that more people are smiling when your taking photos of them on public, considering that Saudi Arabia is a conservative country.

  

  You should know your limitations consider those restrictions, learn to respect them and their culture, so they will respect you also. 

                 Thanks for viewing, my journey is a long way to go.

Lines and Arch

Because the city is too far away from what we are staying I have no choice but to compose and look something interesting and to practice also. So here's some of my few shots taken at the Camp and Laydown area of company I worked for, together with my photowalk buddy.

Jubail Walk

Isolated Life

Never Ending Flow of Life

Preserved By Time

I'm walking together with my uncle along Al-Khobar going home to Jubail when I pass by to a local Antique Shop, the attendant inside the shop caught my attention seems to be an interesting scene that time. He invited us to go inside to see some of their Antique products.

This guy is so nice he even offer us drinks and snacks, but we declined because I'm on a hurry and it's already afternoon.

Many of us accused people the way they look the way they believe but, for me some of them are nicer than you've known very well. All of us are human being, so we need to act as human, respect others, the way we respect ourself. Thanks for viewing!

Motion of Life in a Silent Bliss

Skateboarding Is Not A Crime

10 years ago I started to skate in the Philippines, after graduating in college I quit for financial reasons. After 2 years I skate again and a couple of months I quit again because of work reasons. Then now I'm here in KSA for almost 8 months I never expect this sports will also follow me here in the most conservative country.

 

It's nice to see your fellow skater, Filipino and Saudi locals playing the sports that has been part of your life.

I really enjoy shooting these guys playing, another reasons to shoot in Al-Khobar Corniche.

That time I started to think that I want to skate again, no it would be better if I share what I see from these guys on how they enjoy to skates. Thanks for viewing!
