EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by JWL, the energy and excitement of a camel race at Al Shaqiyah camel race track is beautifully captured. The image showcases a thrilling moment as jockeys and their humped companions line up at the starting point, ready to embark on an exhilarating race across the vast desert landscape. The Arabian Peninsula's rich heritage comes alive in this scene, with indigenous Bedouin people donning traditional head dresses and skillfully handling their magnificent camels. These majestic creatures, known as the "ship of the desert" are domesticated animals that have played a vital role in transportation for centuries. As dust swirls around them, one can almost feel the adrenaline coursing through both jockeys and camels alike. The intensity of competition is palpable as these skilled riders guide their loyal partners towards victory. With every stride, they showcase not only their bond but also their expertise in maneuvering these powerful mammals. Set against the backdrop of Oman's breathtaking Wahiba Sands, this image transports viewers to a world where ancient traditions meet modern-day sport. Camel racing has long been cherished in Middle Eastern culture, symbolizing strength, endurance, and camaraderie. JWL's masterful composition captures not just a mere sporting event but also echoes tales of resilience and unity within Arab communities. It serves as a reminder that even amidst rapid change in our fast-paced world, some traditions remain steadfastly rooted in history – connecting us to our past while propelling us
