365 Project : Day 168

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 […]

365 Project : Day 084

This was taken inside the Dubai Metro, gold class seat 🙂 yes, there’s gold, silver and bronze (the bronze one… I’m not that sure); Me and friend Jason took the Dubai Metro just for fun and also, to take pictures.  The building on the right is the Dnata building, which is government owned and part of the Emirates Airlines group. I think there is a slight color cast because of the glass window of the train, but I guess it […]

365 Project : Day 062

Took this on the way home; I’m not driving 🙂  I’m on the passenger seat so… Safety first 😀 This is pretty much how Dubai road looks like at around 6pm.  You can see on the right the Dubai Metro and the Burj Khalifa.  I like the zoom blur effect created… Nothing much to say. Gear: Canon 7D + Tokina 11-16 f2.8 Settings: f6.3 | 1/25 | ISO100 Post processing: Some blending modes to get some details of the sky […]

365 Project : Day 020

This is the Deira City Center Metro Station.  I took this right after I purchased my new lens 🙂  Tokina 11-16 f2.8.  This is the first photo from this lens (apart from my testing shots from the store). I haven’t been inside the Dubai Metro, I’m planning to go soon though.  It is only a few months old… Anyway, here is how I took this shot: Gear: Canon 7D + Tokina 11-16 f2.8 Settings: f2.8 | 1/30 + 1/20 -1EV  […]
