EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Dubai's rich maritime heritage. In the foreground, a majestic traditional dhow gracefully sails through the calm waters of Dubai Creek, against a backdrop of modern skyscrapers that symbolize the city's rapid development. The dhow, with its elegant wooden frame and billowing white sails, stands as a testament to the age-old traditions and craftsmanship that have shaped this region for centuries. The Dhow Wharfage at Dubai Creek serves as a bustling hub for these iconic vessels, which were once used for pearl diving and fishing but now primarily cater to tourists seeking an authentic Arabian experience. As sunlight bathes the scene in warm hues, it highlights every intricate detail of this timeless mode of transportation. This photograph perfectly encapsulates both tradition and progress in one frame. It invites viewers to reflect on how Dubai has seamlessly blended its cultural heritage with modern advancements. The juxtaposition between old and new is striking; it reminds us that even amidst rapid urbanization, there are still pockets where history thrives. Whether you're an avid traveler or simply appreciate stunning photography, this print will transport you to another world – one where ancient seafaring traditions harmoniously coexist with contemporary marvels. Let your imagination set sail on this visual journey through time and immerse yourself in the allure of Dubai's vibrant waterfront culture captured by Martin Child/Robert Harding.
