I love your photo of this building. Your point of view is awesome. Great lighting and depth of field. I love the two nutcrackers and the Christmas tree. I wish I had a six to give you.

This looks like one of my fractals to which a few extrast have been added. A magnificent view of the interior of the "sail". Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.

Comment from dzart
This is gorgeous! I don't know where you took this photo but I would like to visit! That architecture is reminiscent of places like Australia. This is beautiful close up as well as from a distance. The contrasting colors adds varying points of interest and the theme is magical as Christmas always is. Love it!

sorry, I am new to this site and didn't realize there were captions, anyway, I have seen other pics of Dubai but not this one, it is beautiful.

Comment from NancyJTubb
Wow, this architecture is very wild and crazy. I hope they don't have any tornados in that area of the world. Very good perspective and lighting, depth of field is just right showing the entire height of the building. Amazing.

Comment from some1sangel
it certainly gives you a wonderful view looking up. i wonder how many floors? the colors are fantastic together. plus the added attraction of the fountain in front. it's well centered, focus is sharp, and a beautiful sight. nice capture.

Fantastic initial impact so full of bold color, beautiful lines, various eye catching patterns and pops of light. Will be difficult to beat this in the contest. Thanks for sharing. Good luck.

Architecture is much like art. the person who creates it has a plan in mind and makes it to capture the viewers imagination. It's the most interesting kind of art . I love the picture.
