"Fisherman Repairing his Nets"
His story is one of the most interesting.
I Met him in Musandam, in a quiet hamlet off the road.
Sitting in his boat he could not offer me coffee and dates as is hospitably done by Omanis, so I went back to my 4x4, got out the gas ring and made him my excuse for coffee. I took it, with dates, back to him and we both sat enjoying the sunrise over the Straits of Hormuz. No conversation, just a contented peace........ I took this photo just as I was leaving.
I believe this is one of the best portraits I have ever taken.
"Memories abound throughout our Land,
our days as a Child, as a Youth, as a Man,
Store them now as joyful days unfold,
They will feed our lives when the nights draw cold"
