    Drive Details Level:  Newbie and above (all levels)

    Meeting Point: https://maps.app.goo.gl/5nVsM5gJRN6EYMWP8
    Action Plan: We'll drive from Solar Park's tarmac road toward the Bab al Shams's road, crossing the southern Qudra area, in search of .... water, that is either the remnants of its presence, or the still active and maintained water springs and lakes that characterize this part of Dubai's desert (not the well known, "touristy" ones, but the truly natural bodies of water, springing and flowing amidst the sand). We'll cross all sorts of dunes, tall and low, open and tight, mostly in a south to north direction, working on our side-sloping and dune crossing (mostly straight, with first rudiments of easy criss-crossing, when possible with absolute safety). 
    Type of Car: Any proper 4x4 with front and back tow hooks and 8-10 inches of ground clearance.
    What to bring along: Loads of water, snacks (for yourself), smiles, face mask, rubber gloves, enthusiasm and willingness to learn.
    Approximate finish time: 9:30 AM
    P.S. Only join if you have a compressor to inflate your tires after the drive.

    The plan is to have a meetup with max. 15 members to practice and enjoy the art of Night photography and learn from each other. Bring whatever camera you have and have a look at the advisable settings in your camera's manual or ask in the forum. After the event you can publish your photos in our gallery !

    What to bring:
    Red headlamp and/or flashlight, camping chair, Camera or Smartphone, tripod, film/memory cards, extra battery, Recommended Lens(es). A tripod is recommended for night photography.
    Note: This meetup session is COVID19 Compliant, hence we strictly ask all members to wear their masks, keep social distance, and not to share any food.
    This is not an Offroad drive, there will no need to deflate.
    For the members who are joining us for the first time, please let us know which camera/lenses you are using and in which category you would put yourself:
    1- Absolute Newbie. (Interested in Photography, but mostly use the Automatic settings, and things like aperture, iso, and f-stops are a mystery to me).
    2- Enthusiast. (Is not afraid of experimenting with the manual settings, and knows his way around his camera a bit).
    3- Jedi Master. (Is mastering not only his own equipment, but can help out or other members during the session).
