Well done!

the dark silhouettes are intersenting but also mysterious subjects and the composition is very moody.
good balance be cause of the presence of the man on the right-bottom side.
regards.

Good composition, balancing the row of camel riders and the man in the foreground with expertise. I like the b&w choice for this scene, and the darkness adds an intensity that works well with the gritty desert look. Well done!

hello Jose,
A very nice composition of the camel riders balanced by the man in the F/G.
The B/W is a good choice to show the grittiness of the desert.
Very moody and interesting.
Bravo!

Hi Jose, This is something most of us do not have the chance to see, much less experience it. This B&W has a lot of impact. I like the textures and especially the cropping. TFS. Murray.

Bom dia Jose,

today I will jump to your past as well and feed my soul with this great image from Egypt. My God, how I love this country, I only need to get myself there. So far...I didn't manage, because nobody wanted to go with me...and to travel alone is too lonely...especially when you are surrounded by the greatest achievements of ancient civilization. Wonderful and mysterious Egypt...

This is splendid image and really good choice to convert it to B/W - it gives it a bit antique look. These tourists remind me of some times that are long gone by now, when humans and animals needed to depend on each other, if they wanted to survive and get through the 'desert'. They had only each other...no navigation, no phones to call for help...just their instinct and luck to make it to the other side.

Great mood in the photo and really well done.

Um abraco,

Stasa
