Near Khasab, Oman, there’s an old mud-brick fort. I took this picture of a clay water bottle hanging in a niche, with the hooks for other bottles beside it. I liked the simplicity of it and the elegant yet practical shape. The clay pots would keep the water cool in the shade, with breezes causing a bit of evaporation to cool the water even more. Probably not many people keep water like this any more. It seemed to me like the last water jug of a time long since passed.
