I just completed an absolutely wonderful weekend in Abu Dhabi. For the first time, my wife traveled to Abu Dhabi with me which made the experiences sweeter and more memorable. I spent the weekend with close friends which makes the shared experiences more special. And of course, the photography opportunities were unbeatable.
This entry will be light on commentary. My intent is to quickly post a few photographs from this past weekend with a promise return to these events and give them the attention they deserve.
There were three principal photographic events this weekend: 1) the Camel Races in Al Wathba (the firest set of photographs. Al Wathba is located about mid way between the city of Abu Dhabi and Al Ain), 2) Traditional dance from the UAE, 3) and a sunrise balloon ride over the desert in Nahel (in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi near Al Ain).
Enjoy the photography. I promise to share more along with the stories behind the photography. I will also return to the series of minimalist photography entries soon.

I hope you enjoyed these photographs from our weekend desert extravaganza in the United Arab Emirates. We had a terrific time, and as you can tell from the photography, the experience was completely unforgettable.
At this rate of praise, I should be looking for a job with the tourism authority in the UAE! I keep hinting about companies or organizations showing me a little love for honestly speaking well of them, but to date, nada. Fortunately, I don’t expect it, this is all done for the love of it!
Have fun and, and go make some great photography!

seen better than this,In fact not a good photo amongst them.You pushed the contrast too far,couple of desert shots ok but none of your photos have any composition,Camels with the horizon out of focus is terrible,you need only limit the depth of field on a close up.

A trip to the UAE is incomplete without savoring the desert experience. And the best way to do this is the Desert Safari.

One of the best place to go when you are in Abu Dhabi, Ferrari World. You won't want to miss the chance.
