骆驼比赛,苏哈尔,阿曼,1992

中文注释：

八岁大的骑师们骑着骆驼雷鸣般的跨越护堤跑马场，冲向终点。阿曼人搭着便车跟在旁边观看。虽然在穆斯林国家，赌博是被禁止的，但是给予比赛冠军的奖品其价值可能高达50000里亚尔，或130000美元。

英文注释：

Camel Races, Suhar, Oman, 1992

Thundering across a berm racetrack, camels hurtle their 8 year-old jockeys toward the finish line while Omanis in pick-up trucks follow alongside. Though gambling is forbidden in this Muslim country, prize money goes to the owner of the winning camel whose value could be as much as 50,000 rials, or US$130,000.
