Hit the Road, Jack.

o0o is this why they suffer from bad breath ;-) heavy loads and grumpy passengers ;-) o0o

its a terrific picture Phill ... but must confess like Donkeys, I always feel sorry for them ;-)
you could have walked and carried him ;-) enjoy your weekend Phill oOo

Stands a chance!..and no I couldn't...;-)

o0o I think so ... and oh yes you could ;-) oOo

I like your safari clobber...very fetching......:-)

You need to check out the new Aussie film 'Tracks'........you would identify closely with it....also it shows camels in the désert at their most disagreeable....
Hope you enjoyed the trek! Have a great weekend, Phill

Beats the shades and Speedos, doesn't it?!?
I read the book about 20 years ago and found it quite inspirational...a riveting read. I'd love to see if the film does it justice...I'm sure it does.

Excellent shot from he desert!
Thanks for visiting my picture :)

Thank You, and my pleasure.

Very Lawrence of Arabia! Lovely image with a great treatment.

Haha. Cheers.

This looks absolutely stunning viewed large, on black Phill. It's a timeless shot..........could have been taken pretty much anytime since camera's were invented..........and I suspect the way of life hasn't changed much either! Just brilliant :)

Thanks, mate, a kind comment. It felt like I was in Biblical times. Talking of cameras, it was taken in '92 with a shitty little thing swapped for petrol tokens (worth about 15 quid) that used film and had a cotton-reel type manual winder! A scan of an old print.

Just goes to show........it's the photographer that makes a picture, not the camera - that's just a tool :)

A great B & W shot that survived scanning. This shot looks so much older. I've ridden on a camel before and it definitely is not a comfortable mode of transport. I hope that you did not have to travel far.

Thanks. 3 bloody days, Esther!! Never again.

nice effect with your b&w

Magnifique rendu..!

Magnificent Mono photography It's so atmospheric.
