  2. Hey congrats to the winners…yeah i missed out on this challenge as well 😦

    a couple of weeks ago–first monday of october if i am not mistaken–i saw someone in souk mall parking lot with his tripod set up ready to take a pic of the sun as it set behind the pier, i told myself that must be for intlxpatr’s challenge 😀

  3. Not necessarily, Mrm. I welcome all ideas for challenges, but I already know what the next one will be. The sunset one was limited to Kuwait, because it really was a challenge to find a sunset – or so I thought. The contestants proved me wrong.

    Darya – no kidding! Maybe that was Q8Geek, who took those fabulous panoramas? Are you getting ready for the next one? 🙂

  8. LLOOLLL – Darya! It was Bu Yousef! Did you see his children with him?

    Bu Yousef – LLOOLL! Loved your Oman photos – WOW.

    ShoSho, I think that is the right idea. But on the other hand, we could get world wide entries . . . maybe we could limit to people listed on Safat? Plus Jewaira? Plus Kuwaitis not listed on Safat . . . I just don’t want to get 10,000 entries!

    Oh Yousef, it will be fun. 🙂
