| Popis: | This paper investigates user generated Muslim travel photos in the understudied Arab World. In June 2009, Flickr had over 8,000 Muslim travel photos for Arab countries. Content analysis on 589 photos revealed that males surpassed females in posting photos and nearly two-thirds of the photos showed human presence. The North African region had more photos with human presence than the Middle East region. Most Arab countries had more male than female presence, with four in five female photos containing females wearing a headscarf. Countries with more or equal female presence to males could suggest investment opportunities by female business entrepreneurs with Arab Muslim women. |
