Different Days, Same Subject

These three photos are a study in time of day and weather and how differently those can affect the results in photography. 

Each of these photos portrays a very different mood, based on the skies and the waters of the Red Sea. 

A big "Thanks" to my friend and amazing photographer Abdullah Yahya for allowing me to share these beautiful photos for today's post.  Stay tuned for more fantastic pics from around Saudi Arabia taken by Abdullah.  Follow him on Twitter @ayaa1977

Jeddah Golden Sunrise

I'm a night owl, so I'm not usually up at the crack of dawn.  But once in a while I am, and yesterday morning I caught this beautiful golden sky at just the right time.

Jeddah Airport at Sunrise

The tentlike structures to the right is called the Hajj Terminal at Jeddah Airport. It is an open air structure with no walls, but the tent roof provides shade for the millions of people who arrive here during Hajj, the religious pilgrimmage to Mecca (just an hour away from Jeddah by car) that Muslims are required to make once in their lifetime.

Skywatch: Jeddah Sunrise

I'm not up very often at sunrise, so I hope you enjoy this rather spectacular one I caught recently over the concrete jungle of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Saudi Arabia: Camel Crossing

As the early morning sun began peeking out from behind the distant mountain ranges, the familiar Camel Crossing sign made for what I thought was a cool pic.

SkyWatch: Sunrise on the Red Sea

As we were boating out from the dock north of Jeddah, the sun was coming up in the sky to the east over the Red Sea.

The Light of Sunrise

The sun was beginning to rise above the mountains in the eastern sky, cloaking the atmosphere with a dusty pink glow ready to awaken the city of Jeddah from its slumber.

SkyWatch: The Sun Also Rises

An early morning sunrise shot of Jeddah taken from my rooftop as the sun peeks through the looming mountains in the distance creating a pink tinged sky.

I apologize for my absence from the blogging world these past few months. I wasn't much in the mood after my mother's death in July. I'm back in Jeddah now and hope that I can now resume posting daily from Saudi Arabia for your enjoyment.
