Challenge: Animals In Black And White (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Nikon D300s
Lens: Nikon AF-S Nikkor 16-35 f/4 ED VR
Location: Umm Al Quwain, UAE
Date: Feb 19, 2012
Aperture: 11.0
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/200
Date Uploaded: Feb 19, 2012

 Shot on a deserted road in Umm Al Quwain, UAE. My wife and I went out there specifically because there are always camels lazily walking the roads, and we wanted a good camel print for our apartment.

This guy was a ham--he posed for me for several minutes before getting bored and plodding away.

Glad to get a top 10 on this--there were so many awesome entries, it was impossible to tell where this would end up. Thanks to all for the votes and comments!

Terrific pov and a favorite though I would like to see whiter whites and blacker blacks plus a lightening in the area of the eyes if you could do that convincingly.

Ha! I love this capture! I wish the contrast were a bit more between the lights and darks.

Awesome foreshortening. Wish you'd applied a bit of gradient to the right to focus the eye a bit.
