Description

The 1st Australian Light Horse Brigade bivouaced prior to the capture of Beersheba. A soldier is in a reclined position reading outside the tent. Horses and wagons are in the background and in the foreground a soldier is sitting in front of possibly an outdoors stove, buckets and dixies are nearby him on the ground. Probably clothing has been strewn over low growing bushes to dry. This is the third image in a five part panorama. See A02006P for the combined image.
