Another one of my favorite photos from UAE. This one is from the Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi.

I’m a little more busy right now, as I’m flying to Holland tomorrow, so no new photo today. An there will be none for the next few days, when I will be only reposting some of my favorite photos from the last year. This is due a new job I’m starting right now, so there will be a lot I have to take care off. But don’t worry, the blog will continue as it is, and there will be a lot of new photos very soon :)

So for today, one of my favorite photos from Dubai.

FAQ about HDR

I added a new page, containing the Frequently asked question about HDR that I get quite a lot. So feel free to check them out, and if you want to ask something, or think I should add a particular questions, please leave it in the comments.

Night view of the Marina

I was just looking at the news about the fire in Dubaim Marina, and if I’m not mistaken, it was the building in the middle of this photo. Good to hear that no one was injured as everyone got out on time. Still, the photos of the fire looked really scary.

For the photo today, this is the Dubai Marina, as seen from the Palm Jumeirah. It’s a HDR from 4 exposures, created in Oloneo Photoengine, finished in Photoshop.

Technique: Oloneo Photoengine, Number of exposures: 4, Camera Model: Canon EOS 5D mark II, Lens: Canon 70-200mm F2.8 IS II, Focal length: 102mm, Aperture: 5.6, Middle exposure time: 12s, ISO: 200, Tripod used: yes, Location: 25.097384, 55.124269

Is this a Valentine themed photo? No. Do I care? No. But I do hope you all are having a nice day :)
