Trying to capture some of the dynamics of this amazing city was impossible but this image does a pretty fair job.

Behind The Lens

Location
The place was Abu Dahbi in the inner harbor.
Time
This was about midnight after the crowds declined.
Lighting
The lights were as you see them. I looked for a spot where I could get some reflections but the colors and sharpness are what makes this image tho.
Equipment
Sony A7R11 with their 24/70 lens. Manfroto tripod.
Inspiration
The architecture of the Emirates is so dynamic that is inspires you to try to capture its force. I wanted to shoot at night when the crowds were absent and the contrasts were at their highest. I always go for the "WOW" shots.
Editing
The pic speaks for itself with a slight bit of contrast and clarity added.
In my camera bag
My new Sony, an adapter in order to accommodate my old Nikon lenses, a wide angle Nikon lens unless I'm shooting action stuff, tripod, Lightning Bug, and a Lee filter system.
Feedback
You've got to prowl around the general area to scout for possible locations but nothing replaces shooting a lot and changing your perspective from time to time. Patience is the real prerequisite for fine art.
