Doha: Minister of Environment and Climate Change H E Sheikh Dr. Faleh bin Nasser bin Ahmed bin Ali Al Thani opened an exhibition entitled “Azzam Al Mannai: Behind the Camera” at the Eiwan Al Gassar Gallery on Sunday. The exhibition will continue until November 9.
The exhibition includes dozens of photographs of different sizes that present the richness and diversity of Qatari wildlife. The exhibition space is decorated by the equipment used by photographer Azzam Al Mannai in photography, digital photo printers, and the car he uses on photography trips.
In a statement to Qatar News Agency (QNA), the Minister of Environment and Climate Change said the exhibition uses photographs to delve into details that only a specialist would pick up on, especially given the difficulties that surround capturing such photographs, that Al Mannai’s professionalism and angle choosing skills overcome.
He praised Al Mannai’s work, especially that some of them are in their natural size, particularly those related to marine life.
The Minister noted that the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change, in cooperation with the competent authorities, welcomes all initiatives aimed at spreading environmental awareness using photographs.
