Travel Sultanate of Oman

After 3 years in country, time to show the variety of this country. Very nice place to live and to visit (except in summer).

Great shots, Michel. The beached boats, in particular, are striking to me.

the dusty bull-fight definitely kicks up emotive dust in my heart!

Wow I don't know if its the unfamilar territory or the fact that I've never seen anything like this before, but the first image seems like portrait worthy of being a poster!

Anyways, for what its worth, I think it's a very good shot!
Contratulations.

I like the three smaller images. But lay off the unsharpen mask or whatever filter you used to increase the local contrast. It comes off looking bad.

Very nice images from your corner of the world.
That first one is mighty impressive.
Real nice and thanks for sharing.

Nicely done series. Love the first one the most. Thanks for sharing photos of this most interesting area of the world.

Great stuff. I like backlit dust/fog shots, but rarely come across such opportunities...

Have to agree #1 is magazine worthy, the boat shot too maybe. Wonderful work. I do think you may be able to coax a just little more detail out of those shadows in #1 though.
