Description
View of Wilfred Thesiger's party trekking across dunes near Umm az Zumul well. In the left distance three of Wilfred Thesiger's Bedouin companions lead a line of camels down a high dune, heading towards the right. At the far right large bushes grow in a depression at the bottom of the dune, while in the distance beyond high ridged dunes rise along the horizon.
