Subject information:	A date farmer carrying home his harvest in the small village of Nakkal in the Northwest of the Sultanate of Oman. The picture was taken on that fateful day Sept. 11, 2001. In the picture I like the man's shadow on the wall, and the contrast between tradition and 21st century (the big satelite dish in the background).

Funny how the satelite dish had completely escaped my attention, but that shadow really makes this picture! What a lovely shot!
