Looking west from the viewing area on the escarpment south of Al-Ain UAE, home to Al-Naqfa Restaurant. The sun is just about to sink below the rocky horizon, punctuated by electricity pylons. A silhouetted rock just up towards the horizon on the left.

See all sunset photos.

By driving up the ramp to the viewing area, I managed to catch the sunset though it had already partly set when seen from ground level.
