    Wonderful Helene. I like the colours, the textures and the the figure adds interest.

  • Zabid is a gorgeous city turning back to dust, and somehow his inhabitants with her. Please have a look at this

    love the modern pipework in this shot, really provides that modern/old contradiction to the details of age in this shot

  • Modern is a very ambitious word in Zabid, water delivered once a week and electricity a few hours per day. But tobacco and coca cola always available, basic necessities… Thanks as always

    that is some collection of beautiful shots of a city Helene

  • Thank you Richard. This book was published last year in Yemen and I am working on having it brought to France. Takes time, like everything in the Middle-East…

    I just had a quick look at your book on Zahid. It looks like a wonderful place for photography. I do like these really old towns as they have so much atmosphere and so many stories.

  • Thank you Peter, it’s truly a haunting place.
