I have the same question inside, although I have also luck to have some true friends :)
I wish you good friends but not bad days ;)
My best,
Ania

Yes Ania you are right. I need many bad days because I would like to know who are my true friends. And what to do as they are absent and only my bad friends show up ? :-)
Thanks for your kind visit on a very very bad day :-)

Thank you very much dear.
This is the situation of globalization and its secretions and speed of movement and communication that has reached the world. Of course, all this thanks to the Western world is not questioned in this at all.
As that came on my mind a joke.
No money to those who buy Rolls-Royce may have stopped making them long ago and no longer found this brand of cars.
Is not this true, my friend .

You will recognise your true friends during bad days, not good ones..
People who think they would buy everything for money are really poor and I feel sorry for them; they have so much money but won't find a treasure ;)
Anyway, very fine shot and much telling. I have very small idea about cars, but looks lux :p What I like here is the contrast in clothing; the traditional and European style
Hugs,
Ania

Thank you Jalili for your extensive comment.
First about the picture you are right. The small car part at the right hand side could be distracting but it fits very well to the idea that as well as life, an image goes as it pleases, not as we please. I simply had no version without and I had no time or reflex to ask the driver of that car to go elsewhere :-) Further I had no special objective related to Arab or not, more to the contrast of the world of money and power (interest) at one hand and the other of the world of heart and (unconditional) friendship .
Thank you once more for your opinion and advice,
all the best,
Paul

Hi Nedhal,
thank you for your comment. I do not live in Bahrein but I have been their a few times also this year. I have met many nice people from your country and it is very well possible that these 4 people, unknown to me could be good friends as well. This photo had been taken just at the entrance after my visit to the Business Elite club at the 54th level, which was a fantastic experience at its own. I made other captures as well that I cannot all show here. The reason of my posting is rather personal as a contrast between the material world of power and status and the non material world of the heart and friendship. My life is going through these extremes where it hits me every time. I´m very exposed to these extremes and I feel happy that I get the opportunity to seize these moments in photography,
kind regards,
Paul

Good picture of where the colors and exposure, and so technically.
But the picture is balanced in terms of composition. The reason there is a small car appears on the right hand side of the picture may have marred the image to some extent.
I believe that the reason for naming this image with that name. Arab dress is worn by this man.
If this was the man himself. Wearing trousers and jacket. Was this is the address you see.
I Atagaf with Harry as he said. And that because I will Athiz groups to which I belong to it. They are Arabs, of course, for I am an Arab.
Let each characterized by whom and let things go in peace and love instead of trying to find what divides.
Because the reality of the situation can not be changed. There is an Arabic proverb says. (There is a day for you. And they will come on you do not have).
This Life goes on as it pleases, not as we please .
Yours Jalili

Nice car, but also nice friends Nanda ?
How much heart is in the picture and how much interest or delivery of needs and expectations ?
cheers,

Hi Harry, thanks for your comment. You have better friends you say :-) but are you sure ? Friends from the past in your memories, friends from the internet, friends from who you expect a return ?
You have to find out yourself,
best to you,
Paul

Exactly, well seen Saad.
It is hard to distinguish other people manoeuvring between their several layers of attention and interest,
