Sand blows across the coastal highway near Brega in eastern Libya
Sand blows across the coastal highway near Brega in eastern Libya, April 1, 2011. The exact position of the front line is difficult to know in a war of rapid movements in both directions across open desert, but one constant is the presence of the road, along which Libya?s revolution has travelled, back and forth as each side advances and retreats across vast distances, leaving behind a wake of destruction and death.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the desolate beauty of eastern Libya during a time of intense conflict. The image showcases the coastal highway near Brega, where sand is seen blowing across the road, creating an eerie and surreal atmosphere. Taken on April 1,2011, amidst a war characterized by rapid movements and uncertainty about front lines, this photograph symbolizes the constant presence of destruction and death that accompanies such conflicts. The road depicted in the picture serves as a haunting reminder of how Libya's revolution has unfolded - with both sides advancing and retreating across vast distances. It has become a witness to the relentless back-and-forth struggle for power in this war-torn region. As each faction fights for control, leaving behind devastation in their wake, this road remains as a silent observer. The photographer's keen eye captures not only the physical landscape but also conveys deeper emotions through his lens. The swirling sand evokes feelings of transience and impermanence while highlighting the harshness of desert life during wartime. Finbarr O'Reilly skillfully documents these moments with great sensitivity, providing us with an opportunity to reflect upon the human cost of conflict. This thought-provoking image reminds us that even amidst chaos and destruction, there is still room for artistry and storytelling – reminding us all to strive for peace in our troubled world.
