HIM2  > Travel > Dubai
Dubai is a giant theme park under construction.

It is a city I have mixed feelings about but am ultimately fascinated by .... It is developing its own buzz and vibe like many of the world's great cities..... I enjoy going there but only for short trips .. after a while the Dubai traffic as well as hyper-commercial spirit of this city wear you out .....

The question lingering on everybody's mind is: Will the bubble burst? ...... I hope not.

HIM2 > Dubai Old & New: the ultra-modern Burj Al Arab hotel to the left and the more traditional Al Qasr Hotel opposite.
HIM2 > Burj El Arab Dubai ... a spectacular building .... here showing its helipad and spire.
HIM2 > Handheld 1-second night shot of the all-suite Burj El Arab Hotel, Dubai.  Considered one of the most exclusive (and expensive) hotels in the world.

An impossible shot to take without the G7's image stabilisation (as i'm not carrying a tripod around when I'm on vacation!)
HIM2 > Wafi City Mall.  11pm.  All shops closed.

As I was heading out of the mall saw this sculptor on the 1st floor with his assistant still busy at work.
HIM2 > Dubai bank building near the exhibition center.
HIM2 > Dubai photo
HIM2 > Emirates Tower Dubai .... moments before sunset.
HIM2 > The iconic and highly sculptural form of the Emirates Tower Dubai on a clear mid-afternoon....love the clear blue sky :-)

If I say so myself I'm really impressed with my small P&S Canon A710 for producing this result.
