"As interesting and as unique as his name, Mohamed Abdulla Shafeeg is the perfect ambassador of where he resides in the beautiful tropical Maldives. His keen eye for beauty and passion for what he has and sees is a gift to us all when he shares through his remarkable photographs. With great appreciation, I am certain most anyone with a heartbeat will see in an instance...they have found paradise while looking at the incredibly beautiful compositions Mohamed brings to share with us .It is like going on a virtual tropical cruise....just sit back, put yourself at ease as you let flickr settle into this beautiful tropical MODE of Mohamed Abdulla Shafeeg... the one we all like calling our friend. Cheers my friend...keep doing what you are doing. You are such a fortunate man!'' - Duane Langshaw, America

"If one is unfamiliar with Maldives they need look no further than the beautiful artwork of Mohamed Abdulla Shafeeg. Mode's images tell a warm and compelling story of the Maldives Islands and the Maldivian people, both of which he knows very well and clearly loves. His sense of artistry means strong compositions, rich warm colors, compelling textures, and inviting images that are likely to inspire viewers to practice their Dhivehi, visit their travel agent, and pack their bags!" - Rob
