About Me

After ten years of experience in journalism, writing, layout making, graphic design; photography has become a part of my profession... Photography is an interesting field in which I look forward for more experience and true development... Now in my spare time I like capturing the moments of life, nature and the changing political situation of the Maldives... “Maldives in still mode” is the Maldives in images. It contains Maldivian nature, current affairs and of its people.

breaking the rule and having fun...this heron is flying into my site being chased by an eagle. I am posting it because it shows exactly what I saw, clipped tale and all, panic written all over its face, determined to get away from the eagle.

"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
