Just been told I'm off to Qatar for a couple of days on thursday!
Anyone been there (or know anything about it)?
Got any got tips for some photo shots?
I went there briefly a few years ago and compared to Saudi it's almost western. There's plenty of drink in major hotels and there are bars. (getting the priorities right!). The people are friendly and most speak English. Be very careful not to photograph individuals unless you have their permission. Most people in arab countries don't like having their pics taken and they'll probably kick off shouting and bawling if they catch you doing candids and the like. Don't photograph the police or army either. Shaking hands with the local womenfolk is a big no-no, unless they extend their hand first. It'll still be b***dy hot there so take very light clothing. Hope that helps
Thanks Adrian
May leave the camera at home just in case I end up trying to take pictures of the poilce station or something without realising it jails in exotic places don't really do it for me don't ya know. Not sure exactly where I'll be yet or how much free time I'll get
