dubai trek - jadaf shipyard

after the early morning shoot at the camel market, we headed towards the jadaf shipyard where dhows are being repaired or made. the place is situated in dubai creek near garhoud. it's quite boring for a typical tourist but great for photographers who wanted to get texture or artistic and mood shots. we didn't stay long since we went for a long drive to our next destination.

here are some of the photos i've taken:

Nice pics Jeff especially the last one. Did you use a tripod here? I love taking pics as well but I must admit I suck at focus. Any advice on how to get clearer pics? :)
