Madinat Jumeira, Dubai

Mirage of The Burj...

I find the Burj Al Arab as over photographed; which makes it not very appealing to me. But couldn't resist taking it's reflection on the waters of Madinat Jumeira... Maybe a night shot would also add some drama to this pic.

The 1st shot is the original shot, its cropped from a bigger picture...
The other pictures are some edits from the new Adobe Lightroom 1.0 (Launched today), which I must say is a brilliant tool for all photographers...
PS: I don't do any editing to any of my photos just a few touches and some cropping here and there.

"The Painting..."

I've called this post "The Painting" for a reason. A lot of people look at this picture and think that its a photo of a painting. This shot was taken at my friend's house long time back, the lighting grabbed my attention so I just snapped it.
Anyways hope u enjoy this post...

PS: Excuse the quality of this picture, it's of very low quality and has alot of noise in it.
