Getting a bath

This image is one of four in a series that kind of go together. Here, this big camel is being washed by the handler and checked out by a potential buyer, who plays a big part in some of the other images ;-). The camel seems to be enjoying the bath and the checking out.

A wonderful shot - the camel seems to be aloof of the whole thing V

I'm sure that water feels good out there in the heat.

Wow, that is a big camel. He does seem to be enjoying the bath. Nice triangular arrangement of the three heads. V

looks like an animal that appreciates attention.....are you allowed to take them to a hand car wash in Saudi?
