I have to admit that this was a test shot, I was trying to check if my sensor has dust on it… Forgot that I was using a fisheye =)

Al Hamra Fort in Ras Al Khaimah is really a good place to chill. The place is rather old compare to the new beach resorts in RAK, but I guess it has its own charms…

Taken during sunset at Al Hamra Fort. It’s getting harder and harder to shoot recently. Everytime I take the camera out, it fogs really quickly and not only its going to ruin your shot, but also the camera and lens as well. But, what can I do, I can’t stop humidity and wait till the sunset is over 
Anyway, just sharing.

This is one of the newest mall around… Mirdif City Center. Taken a few hours ago. I kind of like this mall, because there’s a lot of photography related stores and its less than 10 minutes drive from my place 
Haven’t done an HDR image in a while, and I thought this particular image will work better in HDR.

Taken at Dubai Marina at Sunset. This was taken using a fisheye lens, the good thing about the fisheye is that you can get a straight horizon if you wanted to, it’s all about how you angle that lens. I never thought I’ll use my fisheye this frequent, since a lot of people says you will only going to use it rarely, I beg to disagree; Fisheye lens always stays in my carry around bag.

I have been eying this phone for quite some time now, I just couldn’t think of a good angle to shoot. I saw this angle while picking up something from the floor on my way to the parking. I thought I’ll give it a click… and so I did and that’s what it looks and my fisheye gave it a twist
