Dubaisengard


Beloved Wife and I spotted this last weekend. The only clouds in the sky were over Business Bay, and Dubaisengard - the tallest free-standing structure on the planet until someone builds a bigger one - wasn't so much scraping the sky as piercing it.

Apologies for the quality of the image. I was driving, and the only available camera was attached to an ancient Nokia steam-powered telephone.

Before anyone asks, the phone cam was wielded by Beloved Wife from her vantage point in the Goatmobile's passenger seat.

Nice shot, if only for a proper piece of glass and mega pixels that aren't crammed onto the head of a pin.

The blue stripe on at the top of the windshield helps as well.

Keep snapping.

Considering I aimed and shot, I'm amazed I got anything at all. It was a fantastic (as in, out of a fantasy/sci fi novel) vision, though.
