Image Credits

Every photograph on this site, and the person who took it.

All photography here is freely licensed — public domain, CC0, CC BY or CC BY-SA — and sourced from Wikimedia Commons. Images have been resized and recompressed for the web; no other changes have been made. Below is the full attribution for each, with a link to the original file and its licence.

Two activity photographs — the quad bikes and the 4x4 vehicles on dunes — are illustrative and were taken in other deserts; every photograph of a named place shows that place, apart from the Heet Cave page, which is illustrated with a view of the Tuwaiq escarpment because no freely licensed photograph of the cave was available.

If you are the photographer of any image here and would like the credit corrected or the image removed, write to [email protected] and we will act promptly.
