Two couples are out on a trip into the desert after the rain.
We can see the wildflowers are blooming. The people are shown as the U shapes.
We see two ladies around one campsite and they both have their “digging sticks and coolamon bowls” for gathering food. At a second camp the men have their hunting tools.
The circles in the middle are the main camp, where they will make a fire for tea and dinner. They will eat together at the middle campsite.
Can be hung either horizontal or vertically as it is a view from above looking down.
