Al Kashta: local term for desert safari
Blessed be Allah
The sunrise today was very beautiful
Thank Allah that we've have been fortunate
I came here to photograph various subjects
But I found they were quite limited
I tried to use a kind of photography composition called guideline
I used the flooded track as a guideline to capture the sunrise
a guideline is basically lines directed to the subject you're shooting
We had two subjects, the spring and the colors of the sunrise
I used the flooded tracks and it gave me a beautiful reflection to the colors
and provided a special guide to the sunrise
I don't use filters, yet I always use bracketing
the concept of bracketing is to capture several exposures
the 5D MKIII can acquire several exposures unlike other cameras
where you are limited to 3 exposures
5D MKIII can give you upto 7 exposures
its best if you use a timer and set it to at least 2 seconds
because if you're using bracketing and want all these exposures consecutively
with a single click at 2 seconds camera will start taking the seven exposures.
as you can see these are multiple exposures I acquired
you can see the dark colors and the sky colors as well
even the edges are clear with lighting and reflection of the sky on the flooded tracks
and also the bright sunlight was fully captured
I always make sure when we camp to prepare a proper breakfast for the guys
and portions are large enough to last them till dinner
because usually there are two meals when camping
breakfast and a late lunch which is also the dinner
for breakfast we'll be having sauteed lamb liver, heart and kidneys
I added some lamb fat chunks to the mix which should help keep us warm
added onions to the pan with lamb fat chunks
the lamb heart and kidney are being cooked separately
then added the liver to the pan along with the rest of the mix
this is one of the recipes I prefer to prepare for breakfast especially during the winter
we've added the usual breakfast items, such as cheese, cream, honey etc.
so everyone has a choice of different items on the menu
the tea has to be ready right after breakfast which a great thing to finish off the meal with
there are three main types of tires, soft medium and stiff
each type has its own advantages and disadvantages
the soft type is best for urban use
the medium type is a transition between urban and light off-road use
the stiff type is for heavy off-road use like this terrain here
however this type generates noise on road and makes the ride uncomfortable
soft tires won't be able to reach such grounds due to the sharp rocks
the rougher the pattern the better for muddy grounds
I advise all campers to use All Terrain tires because you'll gain access to such
grounds and comfort on the road
as for some of the symbols on the tires this tire here is classified as All Terrain
"P285/70R17"
the 285 indicates the width of the tire
the 70 is the distance between the top of the tire to the wheel
the 17 is the size of the wheel in inches
there will be warnings of the maximum load on the tire
here it is 1285 kgs at no more than 35psi pressure and this is for this specific tire
one important aspect is to check the date of manufacturing on the tire
its here 2013 week 4, its necessary to check the date
so you don't buy an old tire or badly stored for your own safety
