View of Wilfred Thesiger's travelling party trekking through Al Dhafra sands during their journey across the Empty Quarter (Rub' al Khali) from Dhibi well to Al Batin sands. Three of Wilfred Thesiger's travelling companions, tribesmen of the Bayt Imani lineage of Rashid Bedouin, lead eight camels across the crest of low dune chain. Two of the men are mounted on camels, one man is on foot. The crest of the dune stretches from the foreground into the far distance, and a second parallel dune chain can be seen at the far right.
