I visited Doha spring 2013 hoping to capture part of the old Doha before it would be gone for good. Doha is currently undergoing a rapid transformation, which I wanted to witness firsthand. When I first visited Dubai and Abu Dhabi in 2012 I wished I had gone ten years earlier. Now that I've been to Doha I'd love to go back when all the construction projects are finished.

I was amused to see all these old chairs in the streets where men sit to have a drink and a chat
