Partnership

Tim attended a graduation ceremony at King Fahd Security College and got some pictures and videos with his iPhone. Unfortunately there were a lot of barriers in his way, but I’ll post a few that I think are the best of the lot.

I found this quite an interesting capture. It’s not unusual for men to hold hands in this part of the world. I saw it a lot in Turkey, although not so much in Saudi Arabia. I do know who these two men are -- one American and one Saudi -- but feel it's better not to identify them.

Close colleagues, posted earlier:

Excellent image that makes a statement about how we are influenced by societal norms. V

A considered picture. It shows how it is best to leave ones cultural certainties at home when we travel.
