A low wall of dunes borders a low area of wind-rippled sand
On the left a woman and a boy wearing tall straw hats walk through the market
a man and a boy
In the far distance large two and three storey buildings line the right bank of the creek
On the right a young Bedouin boy stands in front of a large bush
He wears a plain ghutra (headscarf) topped with a dark 'agal (head rope) and a light coloured thobe (long shirt)
The foundations of the wall lead towards a two storey watchtower in the centre distance
In the near distance Wilfred Thesiger's Bedouin guides watch while their camels graze on vegetation at the edge of a grassy down
View of wild fig trees growing in downs in the Jabal Qara mountains
View of the steep rock-face at the top of a mountain pass
In the background a shrub grows
light coloured rock tops the darker coloured rock of the lower slopes
