A New And Different Vibe: Travel Photography

28. 02. 2026.

   Everyone tells you about the wonderful landscapes of sparkling sand formed by gusts of wind, but no one tells you how much muscle work is actually done when walking on its dunes and causing them to become inflamed, as well as a torn sandal. However, it was all more than worth it, just as they greet you at DXB: "You've arrived." Now depart from reality.'' - it really is, so get ready, the adventure begins! ☺️

   The destination - Dubai, United Arab Emirates - it was never on my tourist map, but upon a dear invitation and as a great travel lover, I embarked on a new adventure, the first on the Arabian Peninsula - because it's not a great year if you don't take off, at least for those who love it! ☺️ 

   Namely, this is a photo story of a personal journey, full of impressions recorded through the eyes of photographers and art historians, a photo story that can give you a better understanding of the overall work process of a professional photographer before you hire him, to get to know his personality, sensibility and way of thinking, learning, growth and development, interests and business philosophy, all that is upgraded over time, and traveling is one of the good opportunities for that - because traveling the world means getting to know yourself and your possibilities - a beautiful and true saying, right? ☺️

Al Fahidi - getting to know the history and traditions of another nation is an excellent training for the photographic eye and the inclusion of art history knowledge in the process of thinking about some future potential creation ☺️

Burj Khalifa - as the tallest building in the world at 828 meters, it is definitely an incentive for constant striving towards higher, towards a bright future! ☺️

   The architecture of the Emirates - a combination of tradition and modernism, sustainable, smart and impossible, modern materials and geometry, features are definitely worth considering and applying, in business, literally and figuratively!

The Persian Gulf - surely a photography speaks more than 1000 words, and you had to use the opportunity and make a splash, even though the water was a little freezing, when if not then, right? ☺️

One of the parks of Dubai - because even in a giant of a city with 7 freeways in one direction, life can be beautiful, only if you learn to make it so... ☺️

   And as a reward at the end, the farewell committee at DXB - the exhibition of South African fine art and wildlife photographer Chris Fallows - sends off a phenomenal portrait of the emperor of animals at dusk with a message of fearless and determined, and also an encouraging look - only boldly forward, always! A full heart before arriving at the gate and boarding the flight to BEG, is there an end to happiness? ☺️

   How exactly can the Emirates, Dubai and Abu Dhabi, be an inspiration in the end? For the everyday, private and business side of life? For the business of a professional photographer, and with certainty the same question can be asked for all branches? Simply put, they primarily give impetus to the constant striving for the top. They are proof that everything is possible, that established rules can be respected, that the incompatible can be combined. Indicators are general modernization, adaptation and use of modern technologies, woven tradition and culture into modernism - just as old techniques are into modern photographic manuscripts such as the invaluable Renaissance and Baroque Chiaroscuro technique, which is one of my favorites in the process of photography. ☺️ They are overwhelmed by the spirit of progress and vision, which is extremely important for any business. Thus they provided inspiration, definitely, from their desert they created their own world, which they are still creating and perfecting, in their own way. And you may like it, be a fan of modernism and luxury, and maybe not, you will prefer European academicism and the old masters, but one thing is for sure, wealth is the right to travel and see the world, get to know and respect the ways of life of other peoples and their philosophies, it will surely influence somehow, it will create your attitude and shape your taste and style, and it will surely enrich you with one more experience - priceless, right? ❤️

 

A small note: due to certain restrictions and rules that must be followed, and due to the short period of time, some of the photos in this photo story were taken with another faithful companion - the iPhone - luckily, the trip cannot be imagined without it ☺️
