My morning drives getting nicer...

As the climate is getting better day by day and the temperatures are dropping. My early morning drives are getting cooler literally. I used to go for early morning shoots every fridays and thats how FSO is born. But with my recent 21 days trip to kerala had changed it altogether. 

In Kerala i used to wake up at 4.30am and always go for a drive...similar to Dubai the roads are empty and driving is absolutely nice. I had done this all 21 days in kerala. even the last day which i was planinng to fly to dubai. i went for an early morning shoot. 

Now in dubai..everyday i wake up 3.30 - 4am...and i can't go back to sleep. The only thing i can do is to go for a shoot.  So my routine continues...

Yesterday i went to one of my favourite shooting spot...The Al Aqqa Beach in Fujairah. 

Al Aqqa beach is about 135 Km from Dubai. You will need a good 2 hours to reach unless you are a reckless driver...I prefer to stay below 120 km /hr all the time. please find below the route map.

The pebble beach is a fantastic place for long shutter as with the rocks we have lots of opportunity to make the waves in to a silky stream. I had shot pictures with shutter speeds ranging from 1 sec to 5 minutes. each of them comes out brilliant and colours also pretty nice. Sunrises are the best in Al Aqqa and if you are in the pebble beach you can easily see the sunrise right in front of you.

About a kilometre ahead there is another beach where you can seen fishermen. lots of photography opportunity the boats, fishermen, rope, net etc etc. If you are alone these fishermen don't really hesitate to pose for you. but if you are going in groups you might have bit of trouble as these guys don't like groups. I had really stayed 3 - 4 hours in this beach and must have shot so many pictures..few are good i presume. i am attaching few pics here..enjoy.

Talk to you soon with another morning another location...till then bye.
