Great candid scene only apparently incongruous. The composition is excellent

Such a strange (and funny) combination of ancient and modern V

Amazing how tall the people are, but I guess you have to, to ride a camel , love the eye contact and the sense of their life! V.

Good thing the camel knows where to go, the 'driver' seems a but distracted!
