About Date picking is definitely a job for strong and brave farmers. The actual translation from the Arabic for Date Pickers is "Palm Ascenders".
This Date Picker was glad to pause for this shot.

Beautiful portrait, Khaled. I can't decide between the B&W version and the colored one. They are both very nice. I like the texture and detail of the black and white one. Thanks for sharing.

good shot khaled,a bit blur but it's ok.
i like framing the man between the date.
the balance of the shot is awesome.
try in black and white with keeping the date on its color...

He is definately braver than me although if it were for a photograph!!! LOL. I like your composition and the fact he is looking at the camera. As always good detail and nice tones and you have an excellent way of portraying people from Egypt :)

Hi Nour,
Thanx for your comments.
This is the colored version. The original one is little bit dark coz of the direction of the sunlight when I captured it, so, I made some PS effects for the contrast, brightness and levels.
Looking forwards to sharing more photos with you on UF.
Regards,
Khaled.

Great work, nice capture, what about the colored version?, i think the colors of the dates will be fine the time it is harvested.

Awesome shot with perfect focus, exposure, contrast.. This is superb. I didn't know how they got the dates down, I guess I thought a machine did it. Thanks for sharing this.
