Photo of the Week: Abdullah Al Ghamdi

Abdullah Alghamdi thrives on capturing quiet, overlooked moments that reveal a deeper stillness in everyday life. Alghamdi views himself as a visual storyteller with a specific interest in the stillness found in ordinary scenes. He shares that his work is driven by an approach rooted in noticing – believing that photographs shouldn't always provide answers, but should leave room for reflection.

For this edition of Photo of the Week, Alghamdi selected an image taken along the Red Sea in Jeddah, on a quiet afternoon. The photo captures a lone pigeon resting on an old post, surrounded by nothing but open water and endless sky – a moment that appears simple at first glance, but in reality reflects a search for meaning in a city that rarely slows down.
