Seafront fishermen, Doha, Qatar

23 May 2013 222
A scan from a print of an old colour slide that I took on 17 February 1967, showing fishermen with their nets on the seafront of Doha, Qatar (Middle East). Wish I had more (and better!) photos from our six months' stay in Doha, from the end of 1966 to the beginning of 1967. I don't have a lot of photos taken during that time, but thankfully have enough to bring back some memories. This city and the desert outside it, was where I learned to drive, in a little red Mini : )

Arab dhow

This was an old dhow beached by Muttrah fish market in Oman. The photo was taken in May 1977, so I wonder if it is still there - probably not. Such a beauty! Scanned from an old photo, so the colours are really bad.
