Burj al-Arab Photo

Photographer’s Note

The world's tallest hotel. The world's only 7* hotel. Dubai doesn't do things by halves! Looks like a ship in the night.

Hi Jamie,
I actually recently watched a program about how this was built...really a great feat of engineering! The architect said that his vision was for it to look like a sailboat coming out of the water...leading them to build a man-made island just for this purpose. Great sharpness, excellent nighttime colors against the backdrop of the black sky! Overall, great image!

I've been liking you night shots of Dubai. This one is a good capture like all your other captures.

I wonder what your photo info is for this night shot. A high ISO and longer exposure time and a tripod I would guess would be needed. Excellent shot and great colors.
