View of Wilfred Thesiger's party making camp near Al Hubi village. On the far left one of Wilfred Thesiger's Bedouin companions unsaddles a couched camel, while on the far right another member of the party leads a camel across the sand. In the central distance a third member of the party stands beside a large tree. Equipment is piled in the sand in front of the tree. In the background trees and low vegetation grow on a vast plain of rolling sands.
