The Veins Of Dubai #1

Sheikh Zayed Road, the main and often clogged artery of Dubai. Taken from the 40th floor of the Sheraton Hotel's roof top, thanks to my visiting flickr friend Ann (annpar) who took me there! You can imagine my excitement when I discovered that "Bladerunneresque" view. More shots to come!

Ann, it was a real pleasure to meet you!

My dear friends, I am still lagging behind visiting your streams, but I will get there slowly but surely. Thanks for your patience! ;-)

8 exposures Digital Blending, 7 exposures at f/8 (0.4 to 25 seconds) + 1 exposure at f/22 (76 seconds). Manually blended with layer masks and a brush.

    Daniel, I don't know if you've seen the movie "Blade Runner" but this shot really reminds of that movie. You've captured the spirit of Dubai spot-on! Your work is genial! Well done!
