Description
View of Wahiba Bedouin at Buraymah well in the Wadi Halfayn. In the foreground a large herd of dark coloured goats crowd around a well, around which a number of Wahiba Bedouin stand. A large camel stands at the far left, and in the background a few donkeys and their foals wait. On the far right a flock of white sheep stand together. In the distance beyond trees and bushes grow on a low ridge of sand.
