I do know what you mean Anita....When Wor-Lass and me were in Turkey, the owner, grabbed my wife and 'flung' her onto a camel, that was jumping about and snorting 'snots' all over her!./..a terrible experience...and truly put us of camels forever?
This is a great shot though, good capture and the colour is great too.........

Nice Anita, and why didn't you like the ride? Hee hee. Love that sand!!

There is a lovely tint to this pic witch gives ut a romantic quality, really nice effect thank for this one.

Such a landscape! Could hardly be in any other region of the world. I love the intricate patterns on the camel's blanket.

Color of the frame is just right, too, although I wish it were a bit narrower.

Romantic, exotic, full of "local color", well composed, what else can I say? Great!

Why wasn't the ride all it was cracked up to be? Mean camel?

It wasn't all that its cracked up to be? Thats crazy, looks like great fun!

Anita - hahaha on the title - good shot, too. I love the shapes in your image and the composition is very nice! :) So, no camel rides for you, eh? Don't think I'd be into smelling like one when the ride was over, either! - Thanks for sharing this, my friend. - Patty

anita, love this one. i'd love to get to photograph in the dunes like that. you did a wonderful shot of the guy and the camel. it is my opinion that one like this stands alone very well and the frame could easily be left off. just my opinion, jen.

Beautiful composition Anita. Lovely color. I think a black frame on this might actually work better to really give the image bold prominence. The other shot of just the sand is interesting but a little cockeyed and I don't much care for the text running across the bottom. You've done a nice job of capturing the desert though. What a great experience that must have been! anne :-)

Excellent capture Anita ..Love the composition and the framing is a perfect touch . Inot my favorites this goes

Outstanding and the border is perfect.

this is a terrific photo Anita. detail and composition are superb...love your commentary also :))...gerry..

Nice looking shot but that camel looks very uncomfortable. Ever smoke a camel? You just set their tail on fire.

This is REALLY unique....and a great photo! Beautiful! Poor camels....those rail think skinny legs! How do they hold themselves up, much less a human/s rider!?

Back again: wow....Anita, I just put this on as my desktop of the day...and it looks dreamy and just gorgeous!!!!!!! It is gonna maybe get a 2-3 day desktop duration, then go into my screentop slide-show. I love this. Ever hear the Sting song, "Desert Rose" sung with Cheb Mami doing vocals? Perfect song for this photo....

The pink of the sand and the pink border here is perfect Anita. I've never ridden one before but have been up close and personal with them. Amazing animals ( when they're clean) . Excellent capture!

Hey Anita this is a great capture. I like the limo as it is a great model....hehe

Terrific job Anita, it looks great centered and I love the colours and frame, well worth it.

Splendid picture of this ship of the desert and its driver.

Hello Anita...The simplicity of this lovely picture is so pleasing to the eye....The sandunes is special, so very well composed and thought of, the shapes, shadows and colour harmonically balanced....Well done...All the best ...Mick.
