Many of the photos in my father’s album are unique, and though I’ve posted most of them over the past year, a few remain. I like this one because of the stepped heads: a soldier’s head above a camel’s head above a soldier’s head. Repeat.
Weekly photo challenge: Unique
Clever! Good choice for the challenge
Glad you liked it!
The camels are turned in the same direction. I wonder why. Good choice.
What a fabulous photo.
Perhaps they’re turning to look at the photographer. The eyes are on the sides of the head and they need to turn profile-wise to see what’s in front of them. Like a bird. (I’m guessing) In all the camel photos in this album, their heads are turned to the side, like they’re trying to show their best side for the camera!
Thanks, Mrs Carmichael. 🙂
Unique indeed! Thank you for sharing!
Wonderful photo, very similar to some of the ones my Grandfather took in Egypt
These photos are much more meaningful today than they were a few decades ago, not only because a long time has passed since the war. I showed my photos to friends years ago but they weren’t very interested. It could be that there’s more detail to see when they’re viewed on a web page, especially on a large screen. It’s surprising what’s not visible on the 4 x 3 inch photos, but is revealed with digital tweaking. You’ve probably noticed this, too. Thanks for liking my photos, and for keeping yours to show us.
It’s amazing how putting these tiny photos through the copier at work makes such a difference. So much earlier to see the tiny details.
Definitely time has made them more interesting. Looking back at my grandparents holiday photos from the 60s & 70s, it’s the cars and people in them that are interesting.
