Description:

In this artistic black-and-white photograph of a Dubai souq (market), men and women relax, walk, and check out wares.  This photograph demonstrates that despite an incredible building boom, some parts of Dubai have a different and more humble character.  The photograph also illustrates the diversity of Dubai’s residents, from a man in a turban who relaxes on a bench to the businessman in a suit who appears to have a plastic bag full of kufiyas. Relevant topics related to this photograph include: souqs, markets, street scenes, Dubai, shopping, clothing, and traditional clothing. >
