Good Day World!  Back in 2019 I went on one of my most exciting journeys in all of my travel history - A trip to Oman for almost 3 weeks. This was one of the trips which still frequently comes to my mind and one thing I can't forget about is the incredible landscape and the impressive architecture. Oman is a country which doesn't have a massive infrastructure but exactly this makes traveling so much fun and way more exciting as you experience the local way of transportation.   For the most part I took small local busses, vans and also hitchhiking was a way to get around for me. In Oman you can visit the capital, which has some impressive Mosques, the desert and also some oasis in the middle of nowhere. If you are an adventures traveler I can only recommend this country for you. The local people, the food and everything around it is just fascinating!   The captures below were taken in Muscat and on my journey to the south-east part wahiba sands desert. This is my entry for the daily #monomad challenge :))  

Good Day World!  Back in spring 2015 I was on a trip to Hongkong and found out, that you can actually go by speedboat to a country called Macao - A country which wasn't on my radar at this time and I got curious and bought a ticket. The ride with the boat takes roughly 45 mins and is fairly cheap for a transfer to another country.   And to be totally honest right away - Macao is one of a very few countries which I would not recommend you to visit beause there is literally nothing except Casinos!!. I mean, if you like gambling or if you are already in then of course it could be an option :D.   The only other thing beside casinos is a little Portuguese influenced part of the city which is quite nice to walk through but that's really about it. The images below were taken around the city. The architecture is definitely interesting and you surly will find some nice spots to take pictures of.   That's my entry for the #monomad challenge :))

Good Day World!  To start the week with my entry for the #monomad challenge I go with a couple of images I took back in April 2023 in Beirut, Lebanon. One of my favorite destinations during my middle-east trip. For anyone who has the chance to travel to Beirut - Do it! I can promise you that you won't regret it :))   The images below were in the center of Beirut in front of the Mohammad Al Amin Mosque. The biggest Mosque in Lebanon. Seeing the Mosque for the first time in person I was blown away on how massive this building is. It's hard to display it on images but trust me, its huuuge!   The only thing which is quite difficult is getting inside of the Mosque - It is open for visitors and tourists but the opening times are very limited as its mostly closed for prayers. Maybe you guys get lucky when ever you visit Beirut! :))  

Good Day World!  Today I share some images from the streets of Istanbul. During my trip to Turkey in Feb 2023 I spend quite some time walking around the thousands of streets and alleys around the city. For those who haven't visited Istanbul yet - The city itself has been build in and around hills so you find a lot of steep roads and streets.   Beside that, its also an absolute hotspot for Street Photography - You can find tons of interesting backgrounds, stunning architecture and overall just impressive buildings which you can integrate into some street shots. Also, the day I went out to take the images below - It was raining! My favorite weather condition for Street Photography :)). It's just perfect to add some extra mood to the images.   The images below were taken around the center of the city and it's my entry for the #monomad challenge. Also, make sure to click on the images to see them in high resolution. Cheers! :))  

Good Day World!  Today I share a couple of images from a trip last year around Abu Dhabi. For this small collection I tried to work on pictures with the focus of leading lines and an overall symmetry. Living with OCD I have quite a strong passion for perfection and architectural photography really fits pretty well for that needs :D.   I took the images below around 10 PM outside of the massive Seikh Mosque in Abu Dhabi as the temperatures during the day time in summer are just insane! Maybe someone of you experienced them already? It's really far from comfrotable :D   Thanks to #monomad for hosting the daily challenges - This is my entry!  

Good Day World!  Since I'm currently looking around Hive to find cool photography communities and nice initiatives I found a nice contest hosted by @olgavita - Reflection Hunter Contest So why not give it a try to participate!   The image below was taken in June 2023 an the location was in Abu Dhabi, to be more specific - The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque which is one of the most impressive buildings I've seen in my entire life. The Mosque is open daily and free to visit for every tourist. To get the entire Mosque in one frame you should take the 20 minute walk around the highway to get this incredible overview!   As you can see, there is a small water pool in front of this location so you can get some captures with amazing reflections from the Mosque. Make sure to click on the image to see it in full resolution. Cheers! :))
