Camel crane

I used to wonder how they got camels out of these trucks; now I see. Interesting that there seems to be one camel of every color here: black, brown, blond and white.

This article doesn't pertain to this picture (except that it does describe the souk), but for those who were interested in the Bedouin handicrafts for camels, this was an interesting article http://www.saudigazette.com.sa/index.cfm?method=home.regcon&contentid=2010121189055
