On the road, Ouarzazate to Marrakech

I think the cyclists were from Italy; the local looks like a Tuareg to me. The camel is certainly a more traditional mode of transportation than the bikes! Taken around noon, when the light was downright brilliant out there.

Nicely composed and captured, Helen. The foreground bike is one that I've had my eye on for a while. I would love to tour the countryside on one of those.

Lining up for a race? On soft sand I would bet on the camel. A wonderful look at the old and the new. You have a great eye for the ironic. Voted
