I'm not so sure that I agree that the lighting is better on the second shot. I really like the intense shadows and general ambiance created by the sun in the first shot. That and the "rays" of either clouds or light (can't quite tell with this size), almost make it look as if the camels are coming from the light source itself. I really like it! And, as you said, the composition is great. Nice shot and thanks for sharing!
