Lovely shots from Bahrain, well composed and exposed. The boat is not abandoned, just waiting for rain. Maybe that's the owner's solution to a boat being a "hole in the water to pour money into."

I remember Bahrain from 30 years ago; there really was very little there but a souk (market place), lots of beach and sand, sand, sand everywhere. My dad worked for ALBA (if it's still there). I loved your photos - brought back memories.

I could have got some sleep last night but I remember the old saying when I was in the Navy , Hurry up and wait . Amazing, its still going on . It's a 747 commercial plane but taking military people to both of these places .
Friday morning I should have said .


Well, its bedtime here for me. Have a good flight this morning and stay safe. Look forward to more pics from you.. and thanks for the pics and conversation.

Thanks Rivernan . I'm just learning about night shots and I'm glad that the learning is being done in some interesting places . I hope I can get better as time passes .

Are you a graduate of the Merchant Marine Academy? My Dad was and I grew up with tales of the merchant Marine. Plus you always meet merchant sailors wherever you go!
Happy sailing and stay safe.

I take it that they still don't like allowing photo's of people to be taken. I spent some time there in late 70's and early 80's while in the navy. Nice photo's.


Thanks Kevin !! I don't think Bahrain is as strict these days . Looked like a normal place and seemed like the bars never closed . Where I stayed had 3 bars ,2 closed at 2 am and 1 closed at 5 am .
