Dubai is an amazing city.
A city that surprises you, that electrifies you, that shows off an exaggerated grace.
Here I was on Burj Khalifa, the tallest skyscraper in the world.
Under, a mix of traffic, rings of roads and colors:
Approaching this palace gave me a sense of astonishment:
Tourists can go up to 'only' half of the palace, that is almost 830 meters high.
Here some views:
To make some different shots, I tried to zoom using a relative long time exposure...
...and also I shook camera:
Above us, we see the second higher part of Burj Khalifa: it seemed an huge missile pointing to the sky:
Here the view from another window:
Another technique to have fun: I set my camera in burst mode with a time like 1/10 or 1/6 sec, and I rotate camera (taking camera on hand), and this is the surrealistic and hypnotic result:
Again, a zoom effects with a long exposure time, with different focals:
It seems not from this world and this time, like an alien building, or maybe the Tower of Babel:
People come here from every places in the world: western people to visit, people from the east mainly to work. Many languages and cultures. A lot of security.
Despite of its beauty, this city has no story, no soul.
It has built in relative recent time. Here there was only a desert. Now palaces, lights and water.
This is a fountain big as a lake:
It shows us how mankind has the power to control the environment, but is it really true, or only a wonderful fiction, only a display of our arrogance?

It’s a very beautiful place
Yes, it is a wonderful place. Maybe without a soul, but amazing.
So many lights and skyscrapers
Wowwwwww. how wonderful and great photos
Thank you!
The highest skyscraper is in Dubai? I just learnt that! It's all glitz and glamour and I love all those glitterings.
It is amazing! It is not only the highest in Dubai, it is the highest in the world! People can reach only half high (a bit more than 400 meters) but it is more than 800 meters high!
Burj Khalifa pictures are very beautiful and wonderful which I like to see. I wish you a good day.
Thank you! A good day also to you!
