Douz is where paved roads end and the Sahara begins. Tourists come here to visit the desert and enjoy a camel ride. In this image, the final riders have dismounted, and the camel handlers are bringing the animals home for the night. I made numerous images of this process, and this two-camel shot was my favorite. The setting sun abstracts camels and handlers alike, the sky is aflame with color, and for an instant, the men and animals match each other, step for step.
