Just thought i'd share a few pictures of Dubai, UAE from my apartment. Plus just recently got myself the Canon 350D camera so just was testing the camera. Hope you all like them.

Ignore the construction, most frustrating thing.

Fantastic pics ...

For the night shot (#3), how long did you keep the lens open? Very good pic!!

Wow, you live in an awesome place!

in the pictures edited form, my software can't tell you... but a guess is fairly short, judging by the light trails of the cars on the main road.. 1/8 mabey at open aperature?

I don't believe I have taken such a shot before - I assume the idea is that you lock focus on a non-moving target using spot metering and let the surrrounding motion create the light trails. Would this work?

Also noticed the advertisement on the first tall building in pic #1 - boy it is looooooooong!

Good quality pics and impressive view.. so many buildings beeing built atm :!:

BTW, I beg you :D go out as often as you can and hunt the exotic cars that go around your country :D flood us with good quality, high.res pics :D you have some wicked things in Dubai but most pics on the net are utter shit quality wise

sameerrao : Thanks. Okay im still new to the camera but i think you mean the shutter speed yup? Actually i was using a tripod while on the balcony.


MartijnGizmo : Thanks buddy.

dani_d_mas : Thanks buddy! Acutally its similar but Dubai is ever so growing buildings are coming up everywhere.

nthfinity : Yup i guess, i edited a couple of them just the satuaration and maybe the brightness. Thanks.

everso : Thanks buddy. Actually i have no clue its our main motorway leading to the captial Abu Dhabi so i guess its been there for nearly 30 years but its growing, if you look on the west its the coast and the east is desert and more buildings.

sameerrao : Yup i used the shutter speed on the camera i have so yup your right. I ll show you more. haha that advert is massive. Thanks again.

TT : I guess your the big man around here since i have seen your posts alot around this forum and they are amazing too. Thanks buddy, appreciate. Yup i hate the construction bloody frustrating.

HAHA yup i have noticed i guess people are too lazy and plus its weird if your seen taking pictures of other peoples cars, they give you an awkward look here in Dubai. But i ll try my best as im myself busy. i myself have got a few surprises to show you later on when i take a picture of my stable, just have to wait as i study in the uk and will be heading to Dubai end of this month. Thanks again.

Here are some more shots...

This is going to be the worlds tallest building, Burj Dubai 200 plus floors. Right in front of my apartment, 40 floors high. So thats going to be nothing compared to this building.

Hope you enjoy them.

Pretty nice pics of the Buildings mrai, Nice job!

Those dune bikes must be so much fun :P

Well, same here and everywhere else I guess, but you just have to shoot when nobody is looking at you :D or try to make them think you are shooting a building or whatever ;) by standing a bit more far away and zooming on the car ;) anyway after a while you get used to it :D so I hope you'll fnd the time, definitely :)

r2r : Thanks buddy. Yup there are alot of fun :mrgreen:

TT : hahaha all right TT i ll try my best, just let me finish of my exams at university here in the uk and end of this month im off to Dubai, cant wait.

Thanks all once again.
