Description
View of Wilfred Thesiger's party at a well near Al Hubi village. In the foreground one of Wilfred Thesiger's Bedouin travelling companions hauls up a bag of water from a well that has been reinforced with wood. Just beyond other members of the party and a few camels rest beside a tree that grows beside the well. In the distance beyond a vast sand flat, dotted with vegetation, stretches out to the far horizon.
