Loose cycle of photographs of Dubai city.

"Sabah al kher" translated to English means good morning.

"Sabah al kher" shows lives of people who work very hard for every-day bread. For many of the people only today's income is important. In my experience behind a mask of false tired smile is racism, casting, selfishness and disregard to other people.

It is my view of real life in Dubai in contrast to widely publicized glamorous life in this city. "The morning" has more than one meaning here. For many of the newcomers who dream of new better life, the next morning could be very cruel. No big chance to get the promised better life. It could lead to hopeless situations. Far away from family for long time or forever.
The goal of this project is show this city as it is, every day, every morning, every night.
