Image Caption: Um as Samim Playa, Oman and Saudi Arabia. Photo illustrates relict shorelines indicating standing water body, as well as a later generation of dunes migrating across the now dry lake bed. As a side note, Um as Samim is an isolated place, very hostile, with a name that translates to "Mother of Poison".
