Bahrain from a Hipstamatic for iPhone

I was so happy I had my iPhone Hipstamatic app for some of my photographs on this trip. The image of the Plane Wing was taken as I we were making our decent into Bahrain. I was really ansty to get off the plane after 13 hours of flight time. Seeing the Persian Gulf for the first time was incredible and I couldn't wait to see my friend.

The other images are just from our Bahrain adventures throughout the week. A few of them were taken in the car while driving around, thus the blur and motion look.

Here are a few images of the Bahrain Fort, all built by hand dating back to 16th Century A.D.

BAHRAIN 2012

I was given the trip of a lifetime by a very good friend of mine in January of this year. I took two lenses, 3 memory cards, my 5D body, and my iPhone to capture what I could in the short amount of time I was there. I would never have thought in a million years that I'd be able to go to a place like Bahrain, but I'm so so so happy I was able to get this opportunity and I cannot thank my friend enough.

Don't snub the Middle East people, there's a lot to be seen and a lot to experience and if you're a freelance photographer looking for a project I would suggest visiting Bahrain. Although the trip was a vacation for me I quickly found myself whipping out the camera every chance I got. And with my buddy as my tour guide I found lots of great things and places to go for photographs.

These are just a few images from Bahrain. I'll hopefully be able to post more later.
