1. What inspired you to capture this moment in particular, and what story do you hope to convey through this image?

I wanted to document a custom of the people of Old Sana'a that embodies the meanings of giving and social solidarity in its finest forms. This simple scene occurs daily in different ways, and the aim of capturing this shot was to convey the spirit of love and support among neighbors. It is also a call to uphold these valuable customs to spread the values of solidarity and compassion among people in light of the difficult conditions faced by the people of Yemen.

2. Can you take us on a tour of the creative and technical process behind this image? What challenges did you face?

I relied almost entirely on an angle that mimics the perspective of people passing through the neighborhoods of Old Sana'a and chose a lens with a focal length similar to what the human eye sees.

I also tried to utilize natural light in the afternoon and incorporate it into the scene to highlight the warmth and intimate atmosphere of the shot.

Being one of the residents of the neighborhood where the photo was taken in Old Sana'a, one of the main challenges I faced was waiting and preparing to capture the moment almost spontaneously as it occurs almost daily.

3. How does this image reflect your personal style or artistic vision?

This image expresses my vision of transforming moments and events into a story with great value and important messages through a photographic frame.
