Here's a tighter framing of the Manila sunset I posted yesterday. I think this must have been my last night in Manila on this trip as my next photos were taken in Switzerland, on my way back to Libya.
I believe someone once told me I hadn't lived till I'd seen the sunset over Manila Harbor. Well, one evening in 1990 I got that opportunity.
A good desert sunset was a rarity, best I can recall, but every now and then a cloud formation would be in the right place to produce something special, such as that in today's photo.
I spent a fair bunch of time trying to title today's photo before settling on 'approaching sunset'. This was taken somewhere in western Libya in the first half of 1990.
I titled this shot 'Blackfin Sundowners' for somewhat obvious reasons - the prominent Blackfin on the sail of the largest boat and the fact that the sun is setting.
Three school girls heading home somewhere near Kota Kinabalu. From the shadows it's clearly close to sunset as these thee girls pick their way along the shoreline at the base of the cliff.
