The Empty Quarter: Photos by Maxime Daviron
Published Jul 19, 2024
The Rub’ al Khali desert, also known as the Empty Quarter, is one of the most expansive deserts in the world. Spanning over 650,000 square kilometers across the Arabian Peninsula, this sea of sand is incredibly beautiful and desolate. French photographer Maxime Daviron has embarked on a road trip across the United Arab Emirates to capture the grandeur of this extraordinary landscape in his photo series, “The Empty Quarter.”
Maxime’s work highlights the sheer scale and raw beauty of the Rub’ al Khali, one of Earth’s last great wildernesses. His images capture the interplay of light and shadow, the subtle shifts in the sands, and the silent, timeless presence of this vast expanse.
The journey that led to these stunning images was itself an adventure. Driving through the United Arab Emirates, Maxime and his crew navigated a challenging landscape and endured extreme temperature fluctuations to document one of the world’s most awe-inspiring deserts.
