On one hot summer day, Suz, Chelsea and I decided to go on a little adventure to discover a place called
''Jazirat Al Hamra ''Ghost Town'' in Ras Al Khaimah''

This village has been abandoned since 1968. The walls are so fragile and the ceilings are broken.

The walls of the buildings were made by mud and stone mixed with corals and sea shells.

Thankfully we didn't get lost on the way and got there when the sun was still up!
It wasn't as creepy as everyone warned us it would be. We heard a few noises but
they were just people like us walking around looking at the place.
Or maybe they were ghosts in the form of humans haha!

Our second stop was the ''abandoned Russian cargo airplane in Umm Al Quwain''.

The wheels, engine, and wings are all long gone. It was a home to a million pigeons that flew out
in every direction the second we got close! THAT was more terrifying than being in the town
of ''ghosts''! Haha

On our way back, we found the most beautiful place just in time for the sunset! We stopped
and watched the sunset and then we drove back home.

Enjoy the photos :)

And I don't blame you dear for running like you did all these years

I would do the same, you'd best believe

And the highway signs say we're close but I don't read those things anymore

I never trusted my own eyes

Cheer up and dry your damp eyes and tell me when it rains

And I'll blend up that rainbow above you and shoot it through your veins

'Cause your heart has a lack of colour and we should've known

That we'd grow up sooner or later 'Cause we wasted all our free time alone

Your nerves gather with the altitude

Caught my reflection, drop the call

I’ve been medicated with cigarettes and alcohol

I got vertigo, no I can’t see straight

I got obligations though I’m usually late but

You’re the best I ever had

Bright photos just make my heart skip a beat, specially while shooting them!! These are some of my recent most favorite ''bright'' photographs that I've shot for WEST L.A. Boutique. The first one was taken as a video, and the other two of the amazing dancers, Leah and Danny from Jampacked Productions.

If you're having a bad day, just go out in the sun, eat ice cream, take photos of the sky, call an old friend, hang out with your parents, listen to good happy music, eat a really delicious meal, take a long walk, swim at night, lay under the sun, dance in front of the mirror, and most importantly, remember that life is too short to have a bad day.

Smile, after every rainstorm, comes a beautiful bright rainbow.
