View of Wilfred Thesiger's party ... IndiaView of Wilfred Thesiger's party travelling through in the sands of Al Batin, near Liwa oasis. Wilfred Thesiger's Bedouin companions lead camels across a dune towards distant rising dunes. In the foreground, at the left, a large desiccated plant pokes out of the sand.
