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.
The wires are a short wave radio antenna. These were pretty lousy at the best of times but I generally found home made ones to work better than these commercial offerings. We were licensed in Libya for three different frequencies. trying to tune an aerial to work well on all three was next to impossible.
Listening to the short wave radio was an art in itself. Many newbies on the crew couldn't even make out any words cutting through the noise, myself included when I first arrived back in 1984. With experience and practice it became a lot easier. The best aerials in my view were the specially made whip antennas for our long range Land Rovers and supply trucks.
