Different strokes...

Still on the coast, but in Doha, the next day. We drove out to the Katara Culture Center, where we had visited on our first trip to Qatar. When we got there the water was this beautiful, icy shade of blue against a threatening sky. I jumped out of the car to try to get a few captures of it.

I also got a few people pictures at this place, to vary things a bit. I was struck by the difference between the two groups of young men, and as mentioned before, by the Qataris' long hair.

Nice that it doesn't seem to matter how one dresses - a great candid V

The contrast is striking... does the long hair signify some cultural or religious affiliation? V

Birds of a feather flock together? One guy doesn't want his picture taken. V
