Hi Caleb,

great combination of these different "technologies". Excellent colours and details in this fine composition. TFS

Good sense of humour, the way you present this camel between the wind turbines...I like the choice of verticality and the colors are gorgeous and so the fine details. Something different.

Hi Caleb,
This is a lovely and unusual camel portrait! I love the details of its "clothes". And most of all I like the contrast between curves drawn by the camel posture versus the sharp lines of the windmill. Well seen!
Cheers,
Pris.

Wings of history...
hej caleb... this TE server s....
Fantastic POV and DOF to use simple words but I do like this unusual framing and the colors in the camels that goes so well against the blue grayish sky.

This one sure is the most remarkable commentary on how modernity has travelled with traditions. The colours and the composition bear you distinct stamp caleb and have been well nuanced.

hahaha...
what a sweety, this image...
love the contrast between "old" and "new" signs of civilisation...
surprising, no "human element" as the key subject in your but still lots of "human indications" around...

Hi Caleb

I like the juxtaposition and contrast between the old times, represented by the placid camel, and the future, symbolized by the windmills. I also like the composition and colors...

I have a question: since a few shots, there is a gaze in your pictures, that wasn't in before. Why? Do you make a special treatment? Actually, it disturbs me, like in marietom recent shots from Côte d'Ivoire and I wish to see again the marvellous light and textures I admire usually in your shots like in Uighur and Kazakh Girls, Kashgar
