Kuwaiti Souk, abaya seller

This merchant was quite nice, although not as outgoing as the abaya vendor in the previous photograph. He had the most outrageous abaya in front of the store, which of course made me go in to look, but I ended up showing some common sense and just bought a very simple (and inexpensive!) but elegant black one with some subdued sparkles on it, similar to the ones behind his head.

A rather enigmatic young man, from his expression anyway. You are going to have quite the collection of abayas by the time you leave SA :-)) Terrific shot. V
