Description
View of one of Wilfred Thesiger's Bedouin companions walking in the Al Khatam sands south of Al Ain, during their journey towards Al Humrah sands. In the near right distance one of Wilfred Thesiger's Bedouin companions walks along a line of tracks in an area of low rolling dunes, followed by two saddled camels on leads. He is heading from the left into the right distance. Behind him low rolling dunes dotted with tufts of vegetation stretch out into the distance.
