yet another sunset shot of 2007 while we visited the open beach near burj al arab. i’m not even halfway through my total image bank and there are three more years to sort! anyway, this shot reminded me of a scene from the movie “city of angels” where angels meet on the shore to listen the celestial music and commune.

once again, it was good to see our friends from the uk who came and visit to dubai. they invited us to their hotel for dinner at the junsui restaurant in burj al arab. “junsui” means pure in japanese, it caters purely asian cuisine such as thai, indonesian, korean, chinese and japanese.

dubai is known for breaking world records. one of them is hosting the dubai world cup, world’s richest horse race day. to match its grandeur, jumeirah installed their latest hotel development – the meydan.

it was almost a perfect time to visit at the top. we were blessed with clouds and lighting was directly above the buildings, minimizing shadows. unfortunately we can’t have it all due to hazy conditions which obscured parts of dubai. in any case, i enjoyed the scenery using my wide-angle and telephoto lenses.
