View of Wilfred Thesiger's party ...

View of Wilfred Thesiger's party travelling in Al Khatam sands south of Al Ain, on their journey towards Al Humrah sands. In the foreground a dry bush pokes out of a sloping expanse of wind-rippled sand. The sand is marked by a line of tracks on the right, made by Wilfred Thesiger's Bedouin companions, who are trekking with their camels in a line heading into the far left. Three of the men walk with their camels, while a forth man rides. In the distance beyond low rolling dunes stretch out towards the horizon below a vast cloudless sky.
