Syrian Spirit

Ibrahim had been playing football with his friends after school when he fell and cut his finger. He ran up with glistening eyes to show me how it was bleeding. I asked him to go to his mother for a bandage.

He quickly ran off to a nearby tent he calls home and came back to proudly reveal his proficient First Aid skills; then threw in a victory sign for good measure

Breakfast Deliveries in Downtown Amman

This is a typical daily scene in Downtown Amman where is delivered & then promptly devoured! The breakfast would have typically have consisted of Fava Beans ("Fool"), Falafel and Hummus with Bread, salad & pickles as accompaniment.

The waiter takes back the empty trays which will doubtless later return full with the shop-owners' lunch in a few hours ;) #streetphotography #jo

The Old Man & his Bread

On a windy autumn day this old Jordanian man made his way slowly up the hill. When he reached the trash cans in the street, he paused and slowly glanced around. He set down his sack and bent down to pick up a plastic bag. The plastic bag contained a few loaves of stale arabic pitta bread. He quickly grasped it and walked away. A few metres away, having noticed that his load was lighter, he remembered his sack and went back to get it as swiftly as his old legs could carry him.
