seeing this place for what it is... BEAUTIFUL added photos... so part 2 is under these photos
so i have met some really nice people in this country and every were i go i tend to meet nicer people... well about 2 weeks ago... one of those nice people took me to one of the most beautiful places here...
about 20 minutes south of the sealine resort via SUV... the people i went with wanted to parasail... i just wanted to take pictures... and these are the images i got from this experience...
well after they were done enjoying the para sailing... i got the opportunity to enjoy some traditional tea... BY FIRE ... such a peaceful day
well i will keep you guys informed of my next adventure of Qatar...
*********************************************************************
ok guys i did it again... i went back out to the dunes... my friend is nice enough to take me with him even though i am not the type to fly but we like to talk politics during the drive down there and back plus i love the photo op... so here are the new additions to the post...

just hanging out and watching dvd's with helen keller... kind of a quite night.
Is that allowed in Qatar?
peace and quiet! scary though because it's like your in the middle of nowhere in the desert ;)
And those photos were cool, you should met LotusGem, he's also a good photographer!
Cheers!

Ah sunset...beautiful time of the day, and best photo time! Don't worry Novi I was completely clueless about photoshop but slowly I got the hang of it by randomly trying different things. Sometimes photoshop really brings out the best of the photograph and makes it all the more breathtaking :-)

well i went to fuwarit and its good... i got a few pictures from the rock formations... but i find that some green in the pictures keeps the temp level down in the images...
i am using a simple point and shoot cannon power shot... the 7.1 mp and a tripod for majority of my images...
last time i went to um bob i forgot my camera because it was so last minute... this time im trying to be prepaired... but we will see how things go...
and thanks misty rain
you have Qatari friends right .. they would know where it is .. and i guess it wud be the same place .. u can get some nice pics during sunset .. also check out Fuwarad .. its called a rock beach by some .. also on the same road but on the opposite side .. check with ur friends they would know .. btw u dint tell me what cam u r using!?
life goes on ..

well i have no clue on how much para sails cost... nore were to get them...
so other than finding some one here that does it... i dont know what to tell ya... because as i said before... im afraid of heights... hahahaahah so i have no intentions of doing it my self... hahahahaaha
well as for photoshop help... that takes time... so dont let it get you down... its a nonintuitive program...
i my self am just learning some of the tricks and trades...
i stay more to the photography side and try as hard as possible to not have to use photo shop... hahahaha
but when you do have to use photoshop... it can do wonders for your colors and composition. so dont give up yet...
i would love to experience this... tara!
hahahahahahahaha
well i am not keen to this culture here... so for them... yes its probably a guy thing... so sorry but they are locals
but if you go some were and need a photographer... just let me know...
i honestly have no intentions of getting in one of those things because im afraid of heights... hahahaha but i would do any thing for a good photo opportunity... because there isn't much more here to photograph and i have only been here for 4 months... so me and my friend are running out of things to take pictures of on our own...
ooppss..its a guy thing...hmmmm..novi, maybe we ought to start our own nit group..:)
Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.
as far as i know they are small nit group... i was suprised they let me go... but there all a bunch of nice guys who have known each other for awhile...
you will need to give me some 'tutoring' with photoshop. I am useless using that program :-( and also hopeless :-(
wonderful shots and very exciting...is this an exclusive group, i mean your paragsail?....what do you think junarc, shall we? :)
Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.
i have a few already in there... but i haven't gotten around to posting these in my flicker account... i guess I'm to lazy... plus the internet is realy slow some times during upload process
but maybe if im bored tonight i will
you should put these shots on Qatar Living group on flickr.
great shots!
