And that's why I should keep a camera with me at all times.

Rather idiotically I chose to leave the camera behind when I left the hotel for Asr prayers. I missed what would have been the best photo of my whole trip. Seriously annoyed with myself.

I was sitting at one end of a dining hall, immediately in front of me, slightly to the right sat a man with his back to me eating his food. Across to the other end of the floor, sitting by the window (al-Haram in the background) with her side facing me sat a woman with full covering, face, hands and feet. She was messing about on her mobile while her husband went to get their food. All of that in the frame with her in focus and him out of focus. Man that would have been a great shot.

Ok it may sound naff to you, maybe I'm not describing it well enough but if only I had my camera, you could have decided for yourself.
