EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by JWL, Arab camel handlers can be seen leading a majestic line of camels and jockeys at the Al Shaqiyah camel race track. The image transports us to the vast desert landscape of the Arabian Peninsula, where these magnificent creatures have long been an integral part of Middle Eastern culture. Dressed in traditional headwear, the indigenous Bedouin handlers expertly guide their humped companions into formation, preparing them for an exhilarating race ahead. With their sleek bodies and powerful strides, these racing camels epitomize both grace and strength. The scene is imbued with a sense of anticipation as jockeys mount their loyal steeds, ready to embark on a thrilling competition across the arid terrain. As pack animals and domesticated beasts of burden for centuries, camels have played a vital role in transportation throughout this region. Against the backdrop of Wahiba Sands' golden dunes and under Sharqiyah's radiant sun, this snapshot encapsulates not only a sport but also a deep-rooted connection between humans and animals. It serves as a reminder that even amidst modernization, age-old traditions continue to thrive in Oman's rich cultural tapestry. JWL's lens skillfully captures this timeless moment – one that showcases both the beauty of nature's creations and humanity's harmonious coexistence with them.
