A Camel's Cry - A Black and White Portrait

The woeful state of a camel at the Pinjore Gardens, Haryana, India. Obviously, animals can't speak (their pains); this one couldn't even open its mouth to let out a cry.

  3. tx for ur feedback and appreciation...

    its the same old story - 70-75% of the sorry state of India is in the remote rural areas; 90% of the activists are in the developed urban areas!

  7. A beautifully composed shot so full of detail and interest for the viewer. I am wondering if the hand crocheted mask is used to keep the camel from spitting on people...why else...they do not bite, do they? Genie

  8. thanks so much Genie.

    u cud be right, though, honestly ive not seen camels spit on people though they do salivate a lot. back in india, the way some owners treat they, they tend to let out very loud cries, which is why i think the mask is being used in this case.
