This view from one of the tallest buildings in the Business Bay district provides a never before seen angle of the world’s tallest building.

The most iconic landmarks of the city meet in this perfectly composed image as the glittering skyline comes alive while the last light of the sunset reflects on the glass facades of Dubai’s incredible architecture.

In its minimal approach, this image shows one of Dubai’s most famous buildings with our celestial companion as the sunset casts a pink hue into the sky. Taken from a several kilometers away, it’s a real photograph that plays with proportions, creating an unusual perspective of a familiar subject.

When people think of Dubai, they often only see glitzy cityscapes and sandy deserts – rarely are mountainous landscapes the first thing on someone’s mind.

This image is part of the “Timeblend Dubai” series, showcasing how day to night flow into each other by merging multiple photos taken at different times of the day into a single continuous transition that is not normally evident to the human observer.
