Camel's Accident

Gallery: Man & NaturePosted August 3, 2011384 views12 comments

Hi all,
At the beginning of Camel Race, one of the camels fall down and all of the other camels fall above the falling camel.

people was running to help the camel other wise they will kill each other and also racing camels very costly ! some of them worth about $20000

I hope you like it and your C&C is appreciated as usual

The larger photo is better

Good action shot! I think I would ditch the black border. It gives the impression that the photographer is in a dugout. Other than that, this image shows very well the idea of order attempting to sort out chaos.

Very dramatic. Your composition and the b&w conversion work very well.

Great action shot. The movement on the right and the confusion and dust in the center draws the eye right into the shot. I agree with doing away with the black border. Your conversion works very well.

Not your usual fare here on NPN, but what a remarkable shot! Very nice capture. Looks like you were right in the middle of the action.

I like the processing especially the contrasts Abdulmajeed. Sure hope no camels were hurt.

Definitely a unique action shot and you have some very creative processing techniques.

Those are some expensive camels. What got them so tangled up?

You could have jokingly called this a 'camel pile!'....what...

Thanks for all of your comments, one of the camels start early to run and when he did that all of the camels start to following it but there was a rope to prevent them from start and it tangle them. No camel hurt as I saw there, maybe they hurt inside, I don't know really.

for the black rod in the right, I couldn't get red of it :(

Regards,
