I just came across Cheryl and Ron, who are just new to Al Ain in August. Stop by and check out their blog. I think that reading the observations of new residents are interesting as they notice things that those of us who have been here for a while stop seeing.

Goodbye Al Ain. I don't know who the author is. [Update] A little more checking (i.e. reading the bottom of the page) reveals that the author is "mj".

Just stumbled across Aussie in Al Ain, a new blogger. Aussie is not actually here yet, but is counting down the weeks until arrival and listing the things that have been learned. Stop by and pre-emptively welcome Aussie to Al Ain.

More Mosque Photos

Thanks to Elle at C'est la Vie! for pointing out Within the Oasis, another Al Ain photoblog, by ashtropiuz.

New Al Ain Blogger

This morning I stumbled across a new Al Ain blog, Al Ain Daily Photo. It hasn't been updated since December, but it is filled with lots of intesting photos of Al Ain.

In fact, as I looked closer, I noticed that lots of the photos were more interesting than others. For example, this one from the most recent post. That is a really intesting photo. Especially to me. Especially when I took it last summer and posted it here as part of my roundabout series.

The next post is also interesting. His version: waterfall_3.jpg. My version: waterfall_3.jpg. Yep, he isn't even renaming the files when he takes them.

All together, it looks like he has taken 15 of my photos, without crediting me. So far as I can tell, there are no links to my blog or any other Al Ain bloggers.

[Update]
The Al Ain Daily Photo Blog is part of a group of blogs, City Daily Photo Blogs. They seem to be completely unaware that this is going on (I just emailed the admins and posted a warning on their forum page). It looks like a great site with lots of beautiful photos.

[Update 2]
OK, now it looks like he has deleted the blog completely.

[Update 3]
I have now created a new Al Ain daily photoblog: http://alain-dailyphoto.blogspot.com/
