I agree with Lonnit, but for me it's not so much the solid orange wall as it is the orange posterization on the camels in the rear. -- Victor

I love it - but I will say that the background orange is a bit dense for my taste - it's become a solid wall, as opposed to keeping it a veil of hot, dry, air. A wonderful image though! Wow! ~ Lonnit

The only word not used so far that I could think of is marvellous! An incredible sense of atmosphere with a touch of surrealism.

This really is an extraordinary image. Vibrant color and gradual tonal shifts. Yet so much detail! Very dramatic! -- Bruce

Vikas...this is wonderful, amazing, fabulous etc. etc. What a photo...from my desk I can only imagine the sounds, the smells, the heat, etc...but your photo really brings out a fabulous feeling of being there and exoticness despite the fact that the romance of this photo is likely far from what the actual event was...and that marks a truely great photographer...and that also marks a truly fabulous foto. Thanks for posting this!!!!! :-D

Just wonderful, Vikas....but more interestingly, I could be in the same spot, same time as you and I would not capture this image as you have. Bravo! is all I can say. Best Wishes, Traveller
