Camel on the Silk RoadCamel on the Silk Road

 

I woke very early this morning so decided to devote some time to processing this image of a majestic camel. This was taken on the Silk Road in Inner Mongolia, near the border with China. It is hard to believe that we were actually on the Silk Road - more of a scrubby track a mile wide than a road and that these animals were the vehicles that historically carried goods and facilitated the exchange of cultures and technology from East to West.
