This is from a shoot for a leaflet for a local fish exporter. The cook is busy with decoration, while photographer Flickrs MODE takes it easy at his laptop.

Adams workplace



Hussein Ali Manik makes a visit. A chance to photo two of my favourite landscape painters in Maldives in one go. Both have exhibited their work and both are very prolific.

"...we recommend taking a look at Ahmed Zahid's photographs on Flickr instead. Check them out; it's be much harder to photograph the Maldives when it's underwater."
