It's now day three of Gulf Photo Plus 2010 and I'm about to start my landscape photography workshop. We're heading out to the desert this afternoon, and then back to the DIFC for an urban landscape shoot tomorrow morning. After that it's back to the lab for some post-production training. I'm really looking forward to it.
As for this shot: it was taken down at the Gate Village down at the DIFC and is an HDR, constructed from three exposures (-2 EV to + 2 EV) using Photomatix Pro.
If you're interested, the metered exposure for this sequence is here:

Stunning transformation! Really wonderful shot in an abstract type of way and the detail you managed to pull from the original amazing I'm not if its my monitor but I am getting black squares to the bottom right of the image that appear on both versions you posted..?
Wow, amazing picture full of details with virtually infinite DOF.

Absolutely astonishing!

this doesn't look like your average "HDR" and for that, i give you kudos for a more natural look.

Magnificent composition and tint.

Your B/W conversion and toning is exquisite. It changes to whole mood of the buildings, gives it a very 'noire' feel.

The master of color toning does it again! Excellent piece of work! The subject, the toning, the way it was captured, greatly well done. This has been an excellent set so far, and cannot wait to see what you capture from the desert.

It's the question, Neo. What is the Matrix?
Thanks for posting the original. Love the geometry and perspective of this capture and, of course, your "painting" is beautiful.

It looks almost artificial, but I like it. It really feels like you are being drawn into the scene with those leading lines.
This is a really terrific photo! I love the light and shadows. well done :)
A great and beautiful architectural composition. The view pulls directly into the center.
I'm getting photographic claustrophobia just by looking at this image. Great shot.
Excellent shot, I like the symmetry and the clean texture.
Thanks everyone :)
Wonderful textures and tones
un petit tour chez toi, toujours autant de talent, et des photos que j'apprécie énormément. merci!
