Description
View of people standing with a camel in a field in the Jabal Qara mountains. In the distance a group of four men stand next to a camel in the middle of a grassy clearing. The three men on the left are from one of the Qara tribes, while the man on the far right is likely Wilfred Thesiger's Omani bodyguard, a retainer to the Wali of Salalah. A stand of trees borders the field behind the men. [Image is out of focus].
