A rocky mountain landscape at the Al Dahir trail in Fujairah, UAE. Jagged peaks rise in the background, their surfaces illuminated by soft sunlight. A shallow stream reflects the sky, winding through the rugged terrain, with patches of dry grass and shrubs scattered along the path.
Towering rocky mountains at the Al Dahir trail in Fujairah, UAE, with golden sunlight casting sharp contrasts on their rugged surfaces. Clusters of dry grass and a single green tree add life to the arid landscape. A solitary tree with dense green foliage stands against the backdrop of rocky mountains, its roots gripping the dry, uneven terrain. The late afternoon sunlight highlights its leaves, contrasting with the barren landscape around it.
Two hikers navigate the rocky terrain of the Al Dahir trail, stepping carefully along uneven stone surfaces. The mountains rise steeply around them, with sunlight casting deep shadows across the rugged path. A hiker crouches down to touch the surface of a small water pool nestled among the rocks. Wearing a white t-shirt and carrying a backpack, he holds a water bottle in one hand while reaching out to feel the coolness of the stream.

A weathered stone statue of a woman draped in flowing robes, holding a circular object near her shoulder. Green vines and twisted branches surround her, blending nature with art in a rustic courtyard setting.
A woman with dark red-streaked hair sits in a garden, her face turned to the side in quiet thought. Her fingers rest gently against her lips, nails painted orange, with delicate tattoos on her hand.
A modern architectural space bathed in warm sunlight, featuring a minimalist white building with clean geometric lines. A shaded walkway in the foreground frames lush greenery and sculptures, blending nature with contemporary design.
A potter’s hands shape a spinning clay vessel on a pottery wheel, the wet clay glistening under soft lighting. Nearby, a bowl of water and a wooden tool rest on a white table, hinting at the careful process of creation. A worn-out residential building with peeling paint and exposed concrete stands above a pile of discarded construction debris, including broken planters, tangled wires, and traffic cones draped over a red tarp. In the background, a quiet street with parked cars and pedestrians contrasts with the chaotic scene below.
A bearded man in a maroon hoodie stands against a white wall covered in climbing bougainvillea, its vivid red flowers framing him. He gazes at the camera with a calm yet introspective expression. A modern white villa with wooden accents sits along a waterfront, surrounded by lush greenery and tall palm trees. A manicured lawn slopes toward a decorative fence that separates the property from the calm sea, with distant city lights glowing on the horizon. A woman in a deep blue top stands in front of a dimly lit construction site, covering her face with both hands. She carries a white tote bag adorned with a small watermelon pin, a symbol of solidarity with Palestine. Behind her, scaffolding, wooden planks, and a parked loader frame the unfinished space.
A close-up of pink oleander flowers in full bloom, their petals soft and delicate against a lush green backdrop. Maria Sakkari, in a bright red outfit, serves during a match at the 2025 Dubai Tennis Open. The crowd watches from the stands as the player moves with precision under the stadium lights.
A small group of people, including children and adults, sit and play against the vast backdrop of a translucent, industrial-style wall. The open, empty plaza surrounding them emphasizes a sense of scale and space.
Lone tree with dense, dark green foliage stands in front of an old, weathered building with wooden doors and shuttered windows. The late afternoon sunlight casts long shadows across the textured façade and cobbled street, creating a warm, nostalgic atmosphere. Serene beach scene at dusk with people strolling along the sand and sitting by the water. In the background, palm trees and parked cars line the shore, while the Dubai skyline, dominated by the towering Burj Khalifa, rises against a soft pastel sky.
