Pic(k) of the week 47: Dubai Beach Football

Unfortunately public beaches have become a scarcity these days in Dubai. One of the better beaches open to everybody to the general public, is the stretch close to the Jumeirah Grand Mosque. 

With the cooler months just starting, this is the place to be for all kinds of the Dubai community.

When I went there last Friday to photograph the ever changing Dubai skyline at dusk, a large group of African guys were playing football. I doubt that a lot of football places offer a view like the one above!
