This was taken on the way to Hatta Pools (although we never reached there). This is outskirts of the desert, really dry and full of twigs. I found this cut tree and I thought it convey something interesting. Anyway, I took 3 shots and this was the one I like best. Gear: Canon 450D + Sigma 10-20mm Settings: f8.0 | 1/15 | ISO 100 Post process: This is a two exposure shot; I blended the -2EV exposure for the sky […]
This is my friend’s car (Jason’s), I know its not a 4×4 but this is what we use when we went off-roading to Hatta 🙂 Gear: Canon 450D + Sigma 10-20mm Settings: f8.0 | 1/40 | ISO 100 Post process: Merged 3 exposure using DRI Adjusted curves settings for the exposure Dodging and burning Cheers! /Mike
Taken in the Hatta Desert. This part is quite rocky, I went here with my friend Jason and Nino and find something to shoot. Again, removing the colors and purely working with mono tones.

This was taken in Hatta – Oman Road… I wanted to experiment with black and white, recently I don’t feel like processing in color.

Probably, my eyes is getting tired too much color in this massive display 🙂 Gear: Canon 450D + Sigma 10-20mm Settings: f8.0 | 1/25 | ISO 100 Post processing: 3 exposures combined using DRI Applied […]
Taken somewhere at the Hatta desert. It’s sad that a lot of people just don’t care and pollute places like this, leaving their trash behind… Captured using my point and shoot camera, LX3. Gear: Lumix LX3 Settings: f2.0 | 1/2000 | ISO 80 Post process: Made the image darker using curves Enhanced the sky to have a dramatic look Dodging and burning Cheers! /Mike
