Hababah is one of the small highland villages northwest of Sanaa, about 60km away. It is distinguished by its cistern where local women come to collect water. I erased 2 electrical cables here, somewhat sloppily, and used polarizer, it was too breezy to get a reflection of the towerhouses. The village is very basic and dusty. I will add a closeup of the water collectors to WS.

these are not the same ladies as in the original, the colourful clothing here is unusual, normally yemeni women wear all black ninja outfits. I got yelled at for taking this photo by some men, they don't like people taking photos of women, but I thought this was respectful enough, I was at a good distance and was not intruding on them. The greenish tone on some of the facades here and in the original is not a photoshop mistake.
