View of a salt flat ... Africa 2View of a salt flat (sabkha) with sparse vegetation in Liwa oasis. A large sand depression lies in the foreground, bare of vegetation except for a few small salt bushes growing on the far right. In the distance is a vast salt flat, which is dotted with sparse clusters of vegetation. In the far distance groves of date palms grow along the far edge of a salt flat where it is bordered by high, sheer faced dune massifs. Due to the nature of these images,
In the foreground a man on a camel rides across a barren plain criss-crossed with tracks
and in the distance a square building sits along the shore
A shrine with a cloth canopy sits in the middle of a street
Two men walk across an open area of grass in the right foreground
View of a crowd of people of the Fartus tribe
The offering of the Nechung Oracle can be seen on the right
The men sit beside a small farmer's shelter in a field
On the right one of Wilfred Thesiger's Bedouin companions removes the saddle from a couched camel
with a group of camels resting in a square in the foreground
taken from the (seventeenth-century) castle of Fasilidas
A pile of rope lies at his feet
In the far distance a group of camels stands beyond
