Burj Al Arab by nite Photo

Photographer’s Note

I captured this shot from nearby beach in Dubai. There is a helipad on the top. I guess the rotating focus lights are used to send signals to the chopper.

Overall a good picture, but I have some points that may be of some interest.
- Noise: strange for a XTi to have so much noise, watch especially on the left side of the sky. I think you should check the settings of the camera, I know for sure that this kind of camera is capable of having much less noise.
- I am wondering what those four lights in the upper right corner are, suppose it is a flare due to the lower left lights.
-Sharpness: given the 800x600 res, I think you can do better. See my ws for that.

A part from that, well managed and framed, nice colours and well done with the beams. I don't think however that those beams are needed for the choppers, they look more like disco gadgets.

Hi Meyapan, this is a very original structure, designwise. The helipod lights are really attractive, the car on the left is somehow distracting with its blinding lights. Thanks for sharing...Alex
