Turkish prisoners being marched to an internment camp at Cape Helles on the Gallipoli pensinula. The site is possibly Gully Ravine on the left of the Allied line. The photo was possibly taken following the Second Battle of Krithia (6-9 May, 1915).

Photo from The War Illustrated, 24 July 1915. Caption reads:

Turkish prisoners, captured during the hard fighting on the Gallipoli Peninsula, being taken through a deep gully to an internment camp. The ground, rocky and broken in character, covered with a layer of choking, blinding sand, and overgrown with vegetation (though pleasantly picturesque in a photograph), forms one of the main difficulties that our Dardanelles Expeditionary Force have to encounter.
