A Deep Look
We knew there was a leopard because someone spotted him! but when we arrived there was nothing for 2 hours of waiting!
Then this young leopard came at us just 5 meters away
Then he stopped and looked at me giving me this look! He was so shy! i couldn’t believe how close he was to me! He stood there for exactly two minutes looking at me .. then he literally disappeared! We couldn’t find him again! but those two minutes felt like a life time for me! he looked deep into me and i felt it! i really did.
Born in Kuwait in 1976 & as a holder of a degree in Communication Engineering, he had never foreseen himself becoming the professional & award winning photographer he is today. He does however attribute the spark of passion for photography at a young age to two important factors: his Father, who regularly took photos & videos of the family, which taught Mohammad the importance of “capturing the moment” & the second factor is Kuwait’s unexplored landscape & gorgeous diverse nature combining the desert & sea.
