Yesterday I opened The National for a bit of local news and discovered a collection of photographs of a small community near Ras Al Khaimah, a place called Al Rams. The 15 images in this collection seem so redolent of place - deep shadows, cinder block, vivid building colors, dusty streets, ramshackle shops. Experiencing these images from a distance, a wistful longing arose for a place I once inhabited and which features in so many good memories.
I took quite a lot of photos during my three years in RAK, but none quite as good as the 15 images in Antonie Robertson's collection. I sent the photographer a personal thank you through his website, which you can visit here.
Enjoy.
