I did an hour and a half presentation today at Millennium Hotel for very selected key customers.  I’m happy it turned out well   This was the terrace of the room where I did the presentation, located at the 12th floor.  Here you can see the Barsha Interchange and the Dubai Metro Station. If you look behind the towers you can see some parts of the The Palm and the Atlantis hotel.   Below is one of the oldest residence areas in Dubai, situated right beside the Sheikh Zayed Road.   It is now surrounded by towers, trains and sky scrapers.  Once very populated mostly by European communities, now it looks very empty and old.  Well, that’s Dubai for you.

How I took it:

Gear: Canon 7D + Sigma 10-20
Settings: f8.0 | 1/160 | Single Exposure (not HDR!)

Post processing:

• Applied dodging and burning from Photoshop CS4
• Adjusted levels, contrast and saturation
• Did some perspective correction

Need to get some rest… Catch you all later!
