Gun found in drifting sand
1987

A black and white photograph depicting a vast expanse of sand dunes with a solitary figure in the distance, leaving a trail of footprints behind. Sparse vegetation is visible, and mountains rise faintly in the background under a cloudy sky. The image has a border suggesting it is a print.
