It begins with power 始めのが力 (Dubai)

Posted by timothy sullivan (Tokyo, Japan) on 2 April 2009 in Architecture.

Sunrise in Dubai: Ribbons of crackle-humming high-tension lines shimmer in the light.

"I'm spending two weeks in the Middle East!" excitedly I exclaimed to friends, family, and coworkers alike; the replies and facial expressions I met were nearly identical: things like, "Hey, that's nice," usually accompanied with a mixed look of surprise and mild concern, and punctuated with a, "be careful there" or similar caution veiled within humor.
A caution, I suspect, that stemmed from a lack of balanced information and/or understanding of the Middle East.
Over the next two weeks or so, I will be posting a variety of different photos and some of my thoughts on my experience; as this is a photoblog, I will be posting the more detailed thoughts on my blog (http://tcsuliv.blogspot.com/) and limiting the amount I write here to descriptions of the scenery surrounding the images themselves.
As always, I welcome your own thoughts and experiences--and shall endeavor to reply.

友達・家族・同様に「2週間で中東に行く！」ワクワクに言った。
皆様の答えは同じぐらい：「そうですか？」「まじですか？」し、「ナゼデスカ？」「気を付けってね！」が付き物だった。
なぜ皆様はこの心配があっただろうでしょうかを熱考えた。メディアの中に悪いイメージしか見せないなので、普通の人は中東を誤解すると結論を引き出した。
次の2週間で、このフォトブログで中東で撮った写真を見せる。しかも、興味があれば、ブログ(http://tcsuliv.blogspot.com/)で、中東の経験について書く。
