Ok, to tell the truth, I also got over the railing to get few shots without it :) Better said, I walked around it, as I didn’t want to climb with my camera gear. One always has to be careful. But I also liked this view, with the railing in front, gives a nice foreground object and it also creates a nice leading line that curves in the photo. One tends to think about the composition all the time :)

Some time ago I posted this panorama with a fake reflection I only created in Photoshop (you can see it here). But this time here is the real look of it. So this is the normal panorama I took. I would so love to get a really great reflection here, but I think the see is never so calm here, to be able to get it. Maybe if I carried a mirror with me all the time, to put under the camera :)

The Burj Khalifa is not really for those who are afraid of heights. I don’t really see the point, as over a certain height, it does not really matter that much. If you would ever fall from a 5th floor or from a 100th floor, the results are the same. But everyone looks at this differently. It’s still funny how different thing look from such high up. Like the Address hotel which you can see in the middle of this photo. From bottom up it looks so huge, from high up, so small :)

I just got back home after spending few days at my parents for the Easter holidays. I really thought I also get to take some new photos, but I haven’t gotten to many. The typical spring weather arrived, and it rained every day. But maybe there will be at least some new :) But for today, one that I already had finished earlier, of course from Dubai :)

A nice long exposure really helps to get a great reflection. And of course late night is the time of longest exposures :-)
