Description
View of desert landscape in the Al Khatam sands near Al Ain / Al Buraimi oasis. In the near distance a tuft of vegetation grows in the midst of an otherwise bare plain of sand. Further beyond a line of vegetation and tall trees grows in between low sand dunes. In the far distance the mountain Jabal Hafit (Jebel Hafeet) rises high above the plain.
