I just got back from 2 weeks holidaying in Libya and Egypt. The tour wasn't astronomy based, but did get a couple of shots.

The dust (or pollution) in the atmosphere did get some nice effects on the sun and the moon.

Sunrise1 shows the sun rising over the Mediterranean from Marsa Mathru.

The remaing shots where taken in the Libyan Sahara. About 900kms south of Tripoli. No quite in the middle of nowhere, but you can see it.

Bigsky was taken under a full moon, note the man standing on the sand dune.
