Tribute

Photowalksinsohar joins the people of Oman in celebration of their 41st National Day. The picture below is a simple tribute to the Omani people especially to those who are in Sohar area.  Last but not the least, my heartfelt gratitude and congratulations also to the great leader of Oman, HM Sultan Qaboos.

Wild

I was lucky to have a close encounter with these two rabbits in the wild. I was taking a picture of an old bridge and then suddenly out of nowhere, the two rabbits came out.  My heart beat fast from excitement, but i controlled myself and my movements so as not to scare them away.  Below are the best shots i had from my encounter with these cute and lovely rabbits in the city of Sohar.

It's a good habit to reflect on your daily experiences and learn from them.  This way you get better outcomes and also avoid making the same mistakes over and over again.

Unfolding

The unfolding of a flower... simple but beautiful.  A few twists and turns along the way but eventually becomes a flower as it should be...fulfilling its purpose of existence just like "Photowalks in Sohar".
