People ! I don't know why everyone who has commented on this site only thought it is a one page deal ! Noooooooooo... !!! wakeup people, there are 7 more photo pages of FUN - Look to your left  !!!


Friends & strangers out there !

Hi... I am Egyptian and my name is Aladin. I am a news photographer by profession (retired) now I teach photography and photojournalism. A joker by nature, fun loving and veeeery sarcastic in a humorous way.

Love life and think it should not be wasted on trivial problems (they will sort themselves out...lol)

Ex-musician, ex-diver, good cook, not so good carpenter, excellent listener, good squash player, lousy tennis player, love backgammon, looooove parachuting (in theory only hahaha...)

I have a Jeep, only drive it on weekends and travel. I also have a Honda Hornet 900 cc, which I ride thru week traffic. A mountain bike which I ride often both as transport or sport (Not anymore - crashed it) Hahaha... and last but not least, have a skateboard which I only ride in our huge office, and try to avoid the General Manager during my office cruises... lol

 

What this site is all about ???


I am not the showy type of person and shun publicity. However, This site business might turn out to be interesting. It is a release where i can portray myself and everything i do (which is not a lot by the way... lol)

All the pictures viewed here are taken by me but are Reuters copyright.

Ta taaa !!!
Hey !!! Don't mind the posture. I am as simple as it gets and very friendly too. However i love portraying an image that is not me... Its all part of the game !!!

A brief word about me.


Okay ! lets get a bit serious here. I am 53 years old. Divorced and have a daughter, 23 years old, we are very good friends. I love my work and get along very well with others. I do not think I have an attitude problem and I hate dealing with people who do. I am an honest person and appreciate it back.
My work has taken me to almost all the countries in the region and I have covered some nice, nasty and interesting events, and people (needless to say some veeeery boring too lol). My attitude towards life has dramatically changed thru the years. I don't look back at the yesterdays and don't expect much of the tomorrows. What I want to accomplish is to live - today - the best way I can. Patience is a virtue which I lack extensively. When I want something I usually want it to happen right away and I will do it myself when ever possible. I am almost totally independent and rarely rely on others neither for emotional nor physical matters. I am active though at times I can get very lazy.

(Do not mind a few abbreviations, certain characters appear funny when added in the text.)

Getting Rich Quick From My Site!

Hahaha !!! Now this must be a joke.

Cos the truth of the matter is, you definitely won't get rich. On the contrary, you'll spend more money in electricity and get a bigger phone bill... lol

But I just thought I should leave it here for the time being (as a joke of course...!!!)


That's me (but of course how stupid !!!) deep in the Iraqi Western desert while with the U.S. Marines of the 1st Expeditionary Unit patrolling and looking for insurgents - September 2004

I should start weight lifting, don't you think
