[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A Look at what human kind capable to do, turning the desert to a wonderful place to live in. Few years ago the sea was covering huge part of Abu Dhabi. so you had the choice to live ether in the desert heat or the sea humidity. but now things are deferent. the credit goes to shiekh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahayan when he decided to turn this desert to a destination oasis that full of life.

In the photo you can see the Emirates Palace hotel, it's more like "Sindbad Palace" direct on the see like floating.
