Waiting for an Answer by Jim AlonzoWaiting for an Answer by Jim Alonzo
I saw this man, removed his sandals and sat by the ledge of the pillars. Wondering and waiting for something. Sweaty, he reached for his pocket a hanky, wiped his forehead and neck. He looked around and up, closed his eyes but did not pray. I thought to myself that this man is just tired. Being curious, I approached to the man with a question. I asked him if he is alright. He answered with gladness, “Yes I’m OK! I’m just waiting for Almighty’s answer to my prayers”.

"I am an unfinished portrait...was waiting and wondering how I will look in the end. I have loved life deeply...despite the many will chosen paths that have brought me here. I feel like my heart will explode if I can't release the thoughts that fill my restless soul. Here's to all those who walked by my side on this journey. I am a part of you...and you are part of me. ..." This photo has taken at Oman-UAE border(near Hatta) during our Friday weekend trips.This place is around 175 to 200 kilometer from Dubai.

Dubai Marina is an artificial canal city, carved along a two mile stretch of Persian Gulf .This is a very beautiful part of the city with its architectural renaissance buildings. Much of this area is occupied by the marina water surface, which also includes almost 8 km of landscaped public walkways. It has beautiful lighting at night, making this a reason people take picture of it at that time.
