[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Abdusalem payed a call on me in Sana'a while he was visiting his sister. We had a great day together, between private investigation and treasure quest, because I wanted to share out the photos I had taken from people in the old city, but as I usually try to get lost in a town I want to discover, I wasn't able to remember where, exactly, the shots had been taken from. So, we walked a lot, showed the pictures to dozen of kids and adults in the street, talking to anyone in view, to find out the people whose portrait I had taken. And we had a lot of fun.

At a moment, I asked him to stop walking, he turned back to me and I took this picture. If you wonder why I chose to entitle it so; there's only one reason:

His favorite from me is when I say: "gnagnagna"...

Marine, it is the understanding as the people of East hardly understand West, it is the same but till the study.
So here His favorite from me is when I say: "gnagnagna"...
When I read this, I hardly follow that it is repeated gna gna gna if I try to understand it may be GUNAH that stand for SIN in Persion and Urdu but I don't follow Arabic well.
For the shot, if you keep the metering on SPOT then you may get a reading for the face and I guess that it was on matrix, that why the face looks dark as the back ground is well lit.
