Thanks, Oman is a bit of an enigma in more ways than one. Mountains with snow in the winter, green fields down south when the monsoon comes, running water in the wadis with the rains and hot desert most of the year in the central area.
Also more geology, archeology and wild life than one would expect.
Thanks Thom,
I have rather a lot of negatives / slides not to mention computer images that have yet to see the light of day.
So it’s nice when I look at one with a fresh eye.

Junipers in their demise are wonderful things, aren’t they? Beautiful!
Love them and on Shams some are hundreds of years old.

Stunning black and white. I could even feel how dry it was.
Thank you Virginia, very pleased you liked it.
Love this! Very evocative.
Thank you, much appreciated.
Great image. Oman reminds me of the Mojave Desert. And, come to think of it, why wouldn’t it?
