I took this photo of the shadow of our land Rover on this sunset drive back to camp. We always wanted to be back in camp by sundown. Dusk only lasted about 30 minutes and the desert at night is even more deceiving that it is during the day!
When people ask me where I enjoyed working the most, I usually answer Libya. The wide open desert, absent of roads and fences. The ability to drive in any direction you wanted to with no one to stop you. It's probably the most free I've ever felt.
In this example, the sun is so low on the horizon and the absence of fences and other obstructions allows the uninterrupted shadow to stretch almost to the horizon.
Yesterday's photo was taken on the way south to the wreck of the Lady Be Good. Today's photo was taken headed north, back to our camp, following the tracks we made on the way down in the earlier in the day.
