Dubai Marina :: From Past to Future
'L' for the best view!
A traditional dhow boat cruising in the Dubai futuristic marina. I always wanted to do this shot, but it was always a challenge to get the timing right, i.e. having the dhow boat to be in this spot during the blue hour.
Multi-exposures Digital Blending, the boat had to be shot at high ISO, high aperture, high shutter speed, and I also wanted a silky water effect with a very long exposure. In the end, a shot that no human eye can ever experience in real :-)
Deconstruction of the shot:
Water: 15 sec at f/8 ISO 200
Buildings: 1, 4 & 8 sec at f/8 ISO 200
Boat: 1/8 sec at f/4 ISO 1000, shot 8 minutes before the other exposures (when there was still more light which was good, but I did not have a choice anyway!)
