World's tallest Photo

Photographer’s Note

The world's tallest building, the Burj Dubai, over 800 metres tall. It makes all the other skyscrapers around it look small. This view is from the roof of the hotel on Dubai Creek, taken in the early morning.

The original photo was very hazy, a combination of the telephoto and the pollution in ths city of petroleum and traffic. I used Photoshop to increase the contrast and saturate the colours to produce an acceptable photo.

Hi Vincent,
Good pov to frame these skyscrapers in different design, but the quality of air is not so good, natural color and lighting to show it, thanks for sharing.

For someone who says they are mainly into landscapes this is a pretty good shot Vincent!
I like the haze (pollution effect)- it shows modern cities up for what they are.

Ian
