Great capture - I love the bright colors the camels are wearing, and the smiles on both the riders and camels!

Yet another interesting shot by Helen. You always come up with the most unique shots. Very colorful and very nice detail/exposure.

PS - just saw your 'after the camel races' comment. Yep - they are indeed camels.

Helen - this photo is awesome! Love the colors strapped around the camels. I believe they are camels - camels have one hump and dromedaries have two. Nonetheless, great capture. The guys look so cool, and I hyperventilate when I get on a horse - much less on something this tall. Very, very cool shot!

Love the expressions, the lighting and the title. Everywhere in the world there is no place like home. Dale

What a cool image, Helen! Lots of smiling going on... even one of the camels appears to be smiling. (Not the ones with camel muzzles though - but one of them seems to be watching you closely!). One guy even has a Seven-up! Nice capture!

Those guys seemed to have had some good fun. Great capture in the evening sun.
