Awaiting a verdict

This was our group contemplating the purchase of fresh honey. The man in yellow sampling some honey was our local tour guide, Majid, who was asked by the tour operator to show us around his province. The first day we met Majid, he was dressed in the traditional white thobe and shemagh (red and white headdress). The second day of the tour he was dressed in Western clothes, and I actually didn’t recognize him until somebody made reference to him.

What a fun capture! Interesting narrative too. How do the men decide to wear western clothes vs. the traditional white thobe and shemagh on a given day? V
