#365 - The road to healthy

Good morning world 

40min walking & 1 hr Yoga behind me, now I'm chewing my Veggie juice.... 
I am tempted to go to Fahaheel and get me the cheap juicer after all... This juice (smoothie) ain't bad, BUT,.... 

Anyhow, this one's a blend of 1 (biggish) cucumber, 1 Tomato, 2 (biggish) carrots, 1 relatively big red beet & one apple. Added some water and overheated my poor Blender a bit, even though I added stuff slowly  . If you want it less chewy - add more water.

Stored half of it in a jar (you have to fill it all the way, or all the Vitamins will go 'puff'. That one's either for tomorrow or later today.

Put in some Tumeric, Flax seeds and oats. Forgot to put in some Ginger, but used some of my powdered Ginger instead. And defo don't have a problem chewing this 'juice' 

#365 - No more Fahaheel beach

No more Fahaheel beach. At least not with the dogs.
And what's the point of going there without?
I guess someone higher up must have gotten scared.
Oh well. For now we still have Mangaf beach.
Not for much longer, I'm afraid, since they are building all that fancy stuff there.
But with all that trash around it really ain't no fun anyway. All the dogs want to do these days, is
go and roam for scraps. Yuck.

I am glad they are doing more against the trash. It got a little better it seems,
but people are still very disrespectful.

#365 - What a great morning

Knitting at the beach cafe in Fahaheel with a friend.
Gorgeous weather and fresh air.
What more could one want?

#Kuwait - Fahaheel beach, April 26th 2007

A new series, that will also make me dig and clean deep in my archives ;-)

Inspired by 1001 Street chairs in Cairo (I might also put them all on tumblr)

From the beginning all the old chairs around Kuwait and reused Couches have fascinated me.
And I took loads of photos.

OK, this is not one of them, but the first object you can sit on from my archives ;-)

Hope you enjoy the new series :-)

Poor they might be...
....but most are happy in their own way.

The guy at the clothes stand took up the opportunity for some free advertisement ;-)

 Been out for an hour, it's only 30C and I feel like someone locked me into a Sauna for too long.
I need to toughen up before summer comes along!

For the second part of my assignment - spontaneous - you've seen most of my posted photos already.
The ones from Fahaheel beach last Thursday.
 Here's my text along with two you haven't seen yet.

Mission 5 Plus post - Spontaneous

Thursday morning I grabbed the opportunity of a clear looking, dust free morning.

I didn't calculate in the haze, so photos resulted in some grainy disappointment.

Oh well, I salvaged what I could. Editing was done by hand, except for shot Nr. 6, which I have thrown in for some colour, not really belonging to the set :-)

Have a good Sunday all!

#Kuwait - Hazy Glory

The beach photos I am posting are from my walk yesterday morning.
I needed to get out and I needed to take photos for my assignment (for the Mentorship program).
We have a two part assignment this time. One for spontaneous photos and one for planned.
These will be the ones for my spontaneous part (I think).
They are not as crisp, tack sharp or whatever I wanted them to be.
The weather isn't playing along. I thought it was yesterday, but looking at the photos at home,
it's grain galore.
I'll make up for it.
One day ;-)

One of my Portrait 'training' sessions there.
Folks are very cooperative ;)
The lighting sucks, but such is Life ;)

They all got a small print a week later and were pretty happy =)

#365 - 048 / Liberation day preparations

Next week is Kuwait Liberation day.
Celebrations are pretty much all months long, with kids dressing up, flags and all.
Whoever wants to go into the city on the actual Liberation day needs to prepare to be stuck in a motorcade for hours with their cars ending up full of foam and other 'decorations' ;)
I'll try to catch some more photos next week, it's fun to watch.
But no, thanks, I won't go into town. At all. ;)
