The Bedouin and the Genie Photograph

Hi... I am Egyptian and my name is Aladin. I am a news photographer by profession (retired) now I teach photography and photojournalism. A joker by nature, fun loving and very sarcastic in a humorous way. Love life and think it should not be wasted on trivial problems (they will sort themselves out...lol) My attitude towards life has dramatically changed thru the years. I don't look back at the yesterdays and don't expect much of the tomorrows. What I want to accomplish is to live - today - the best way I can. Patience is a virtue which I lack extensively. When I want something I usually want it to happen right away and I will do it myself when ever possible. I am almost totally independent and rarely rely on others neither for emotional or physical matters. I am active though at times I can get very lazy.
