at noon in Salalah

You see the entrance to the meat market. There are separate areas for beef and camel meat. Meat strips and fat skins hang from sticks. The workers (it seemed to me they were all Indian) hack huge flesh mountains - often barefooted between bloody meat waste. The Omanis do not do such work. You see in the picture two Omanis, sitting in front of the meat market in the shade. They wear their traditional dishdashas, the long white, long-sleeved clothes. The headdress is called kofia, a cylindrical cap.
Strong odours receive the visitor of this market.
Its a foreign land to me...and much to read with this photo...the vegetation, the people, the light..all very interesting.

I love the clarity of the figures and your processing. I think you must have a very good camera! I could never get this sort of picture with my camera! fav

there is so much detail - all perfectly clear even when you zoom right in. A fascinating image and narrative - as always Jerome. The leaves on the tree seem to peel open the scene and give it an added air of secrecy.
