When lit up this tends to showcase this beautiful architecture in all its stunning glory.Equipment
This was shot using my first digital camera which was a Panasonic FZ20 which had a beautiful lens. f/8, 1/3 sec, 36mm.Inspiration
This architectural wonder was close to where I used to live in Sharjah and would see it everyday when driving to and fro from work and the sight when lit up was simply stunning. So one day I took my camera with me and when returning from work stopped and shot this beautiful image making up memories of a time in my past.Editing
