Typical Omani Man Editorial Photo

Almost all Omani men wear a dishdasha, a floor length robe which appears dazzlingly white, even on a herdsman who has been out all day on a dusty hillside. Two types of head dress are worn. This one is the kummah, more like a cap and is the head dress worn during unofficial timings. It is hand embroidered and comes in a plethora of colours and styles. This two men were looking at me. One was smiling, and had a cellphone in its hand.
