Was taken inside the Dubai Metro. The glass was very dirty so I have to do a lot of cleanup. There was a color cast on the windows of the train, so instead of color correcting it, I tried to accentuate it which gives it a more cinematic look. Gear: Canon 7D + Tokina 11-16 f2.8 Settings: f8.0 | 1/13 | ISO 100 Post process: Dodging and burning Cleaned up using clone tool and spot healing tool Adjusted color balance […]

It’s not valentines day; I don’t know why they are both wearing red-ish shirts; I also don’t know what exactly they are doing; I guess when your in-love, you don’t give a *bleep*!

These cloud formations are really rare in Dubai. I saw them on my way home and I just had to pull over and get a snap of them. Clouds add a lot of depth and character to an image, too bad we don’t have a lot of them here.
