About the article

Speak for 90 seconds each about the images given below.    

The picture portrays a bleak desert landscape with a rare spot of colour and life right at the centre.

The foreground is covered in sand and rocks of varied sizes, all in shades of beige. In the distance, one can see sand dunes in earthy brown hues. A camel, led by a man dressed in a flowing light blue robe, can be seen walking steadily across the arid terrain. Seated atop the camel on a multi-coloured saddle is a woman wearing black trousers and a full-sleeved light-coloured shirt. Both travellers have headgear to shield themselves from the scorching desert heat.

Overall,  the picture evokes a sombre mood with the vast expanse of a dull blue sky overhead enhancing the sense of solitude and desolation.
