I think sabredog has the correct answer.
They drive on the left, it is in a desert ( Betpak Dala ) and the google images of the airfield tie up with the posted picture.

And, apparently, it is not enough to know that there is a long lens effect, one needs to read it correctly. Almost only airport in Kazachstan that I DID NOT look at
.
As an ex-Soviet state, I don't think they drive on the left, however…..
And the altitude is -72 ft Minus 72 feet (StressFree probably has fits of laughter right now), and the other (Right this direction) runway is not active. The latitude was not bad, though, 47°N.

Sabredog, yes its Atyrau in Kazakhstan 
Somewhere that I fly to several times a year.
Over to you sir.
Reg, its a grim place in the winter. We usually go from here to Uralsk, which is FAR worse. The boss is an oil man and theres lots in this area.......even at -72'.
