The bright lights of Dubai
With its teeming skyscrapers, the Middle Eastern metropolis of Dubai is a place made for after dark. The searing light of the sun has disappeared, while the tall buildings glimmer and twinkle with a myriad of illuminations.
Next to the Dubai Mall – the largest shopping centre in the world – is a dazzling spectacle made for night-time. The Dubai Fountain is a show which sees plumes of water gushing high into the air and dancing to music.
This makes the city a great location for night photography. Armed with my tripod, I took shots of the Dubai Marina area, and then headed to catch the fountain in all its glory.

Great series of images, Mike. I echo Lautal’s comments about the beauty of the night shots – and I love the white fountain! :)

Thank you very much, Richard. Night shoots are always fun, better in desert heat than the middle of winter here! I’m a bit more partial to the blue fountain, as it goes…
