Omani Scout - The Empty Quarter - a photo on Flickriver

A meeting on the way to Sisri (Ubar), SW Oman.

My new album is titled "The People of OMAN"
The collection records the indigenous people and the way of life in the Souks, of these traditional inhabitants, the Omanis and the Tribal Bedu.
As in many cultures, this aspect is under threat as the older people pass on and are not sufficiently replaced by the young, who have often moved on to the towns and cities in search of a more prosperous, modern life style.

I also belong to the British Omani Society in London.
My article and photography are published in their 2015 Review.
You can access it here :- www.britishomani.org/annual-review
Then go to the 2015 Review, press on it, go down, the article is on pages 12/15.
It’s very easy and safe, even I can do it!
