在也门的瓦地哈达拉马瓦杜(Wadi Hadramawt)中部,身穿黑色阿拉伯长袍头戴一种叫做nakhls的遮阳草帽的妇女们正在田间干活。这里是阿拉伯半岛上的鲁布哈利(Rub al Khali)沙漠南部边上的一块绿洲,这片沙漠又称为空域(Empty Quarter)。鲁布哈利是世界上最大的沙海,占据了阿拉伯半岛五分之一的面积。

英文注释:

Wadi Hadramawt, Yemen, 2005

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. Its 225,000 square miles (582,747 square kilometers) claim substantial portions of Saudi Arabia, as well as parts of Oman, Yemen, and the United Arab Emirates. About a dozen Bedouin tribes still live in this harsh landscape.
