Dubai Skyline :: Blue Hour
Dubai Skyline
by Daniel Cheong

Very Large View is a must! Everyone can enjoy, not my contacts only ;-)

The tallest building is of course the Burj Dubai, it will be inaugurated in September this year. The height to the top the spire (clearly visible now) is 818 meters (2,684 ft). The number of habitable floors is 160. At the base of the tower is a huge fountain illuminated by 6,600 lights and 50 colored projectors. It is 275 m (900 ft) long and will shoot water 150 m (490 ft) into the air. I saw that fountain already (almost completed, being tested now) and it's truly an amazing piece of work. Shots to come soon!

The same skyline will definitely look more interesting in September as I bet the Burj Dubai will be glowing in all its splendor!

A 3x5 exposures digitally blended panorama that I did 6 weeks ago, during one evening when the haze was minimal.

Original size: 8462 x 2794 pixels, over 24 Mpix. Actually the original panorama was much wider, but I cropped it otherwise it would have looked too small...
