Very Iconic image of Dubai's cityscape from a very high vantage point and covering a lot of real state. Indeed the tallest building is still the Burj Khalifa with it's 208 floors. Interesting the almost monotone of the image (is it the result of the PP ?) with a few exceptions and a clear sky with areas showing blue. The image is sharp. The water in the foreground was rendered black. Posted: 07/05/2021 16:35:17
Thank you Isaac. I actually had to refer to my PP work to answer your question. It is what it is! All those smaller buildings are of sand colour and the tall ones are of dark green or blue or grey. So in general it looks quite monotone.
Dubai has changed a lot from what it was in 2015.I was lucky enough to go to my husband's office few times and got some great images of the Burj from this height. Posted: 07/06/2021 10:21:32

Very interesting perspective from taking this so high up. Have never been to Dubai but you have captured the iconic tall buildings towering over the rest of the city. Posted: 07/09/2021 21:53:56
This photo looks like it is from the future… very stark, sandy city. But intriguing. I want to go here… maybe some more blue in the sky? Looks very cool though Posted: 07/23/2021 01:07:09

Having visited Dubai twice in the last 6 years - this is SOME viewpoint, I had to take the Burj Khalifa from street level, great shot Malabika! Posted: 07/26/2021 15:37:50
Thanks David! Posted: 07/26/2021 23:03:21
Wonderful photo! I've been there fairly recently, but unfortunately didn't have access to another tall building. Great viewpoint and perspective over the entire scene. I'd definitely recommend Dubai, and Abu Dhabi, as the architecture is very modern and interesting, built since oil was discovered not that long ago! Posted: 07/28/2021 17:24:24
