Clad in black abayas and sun-shielding straw hats called nakhls, women work the fields in central Yemen’s Wadi Hadramawt, an oasis on the southern periphery of Arabia’s Rub al Khali, or Empty Quarter.
Occupying a fifth of the Arabian Peninsula, the Rub al Khali is the world’s largest sand sea.

Blacked out
Isn't this just awesome. What do you think?
