Al Ain Zoo

Went to checkout Al Ain the other day and ended up popping into the zoo in that area; so I ended up getting some good shots of some of the animals and my younger brothers although the best ones were only of giraffes.  Hope you like them!

Emirates Palace Hotel

Don't know if any of you would have heard about this in the UK but Abu Dhabi put up the worlds most expensive Christmas tree in the Emirates hotel.  It's decorated with expensive jewels, gold etc and is basically a reminder that they're doing alright in this recession (I guess).

Dibba, Fajairah & Somewhere in Oman

Some new photos that were taken from Fajairah in UAE and a bit of photography from Oman as we popped into there for a bit as well.  Quality weekend, boiling and went in the Indian Ocean for a dip as well.  Good times!

Jacob and Liam Looking At the People Fishing In Oman

Mad 'Ed On A Boat (They Were Blippin' It)

And a Game of Ping Pong at the Hotel

Also found a camel racing channel which I thought was flat out quality.  Apparently they use to race the camels with children on their back but as that became illegal, they now do it with robots with fake whips and all that.  The jeeps in the background control the robots; flat out amazing!  And they can't even gamble on the camels as it's illegal so who knows what the point of this is.

Abu Dhabi

Arrived in Abu Dhabi the other day for the Christmas holidays.  It's basically hotter than a British summer at the moment here so I'll probably come back with a nice sun burn and all that.  This the first half decent shot I took but I'll be getting some better pictures soon no doubt, off to Fujairah today and maybe Oman tomorrow as well.  Tidy.

University Work

These are some of my photographs from one of my 'Directed Studies' for photography where I had to try and vary my images and focus on different areas in the image.  It didn't work as well as hoped because my lenses aperture don't vary much but here are some of the images I took anyways.

Some Old Macro Shots

Found these two photos the other day which were taken with my old bridge camera.  Might as well put them on the blogspot as I haven't put much on it recently.

Birmingham Night Photography

Alright, these are just a few photos I took the other night because I was going to do night photography for my uni work; but I read the title wrong and these were the only half decent images I got from the two hour session in some sketchy area in Birmingham.  Didn't get my stuff robbed though so happy days!  Enjoy.

Barcelona 2010

The images below are the selection of images that I've taken and edited for my first photography assignment in university.  Feel free to leave a comment whether you like them, dislike them or have suggestions.  Cheers pal!
