What a wonderful moment you have captured here, Anne. I have never thought of camels as lovable but there is clearly a bond between this one -- who even appears to be smiling contentedly rather than sneering LOL -- and his handler. Great tones, too, reminiscent of the dry and often dusty desert. #1355433Nikki McDonald March 20, 2011
You must know I'm absolutely delighted to see the finalist badge on this one, Anne -- will not be surprised to see it go on. Congratulations on the finalist and good luck in the next round. #9302657Anne B. Houang March 20, 2011
Thank you Nikki! Camels in the UAE are very lovable... Last week-end I was at a camel race and a few camels were "blowing" air in my neck and rubbing their face against my back and shoulders. Once in the desert, I found myself surrounded by several of them who all wanted some TLC!!! A bit overwhealming, they are tall and I am only 5"2!!! #9303148Merna L. Nobile March 24, 2011
Yes, you heard right! Congratulations you are a winner! Merna#9315235
