One more from the series 'Urban Jungle'. The vantage point from the roof top I was shooting from, along with the lens compression from 70-200, resulted in creating an illusion of how busy and tight Dubai skyline really is, when in reality, some of those buildings are kms away from each other. When on roof top, the usual wide angle shots fail to excite me, which kind of results in shots as seen in this series.

A skyscraper is a tall, continuously habitable building of many storeys, usually designed for office and commercial use. There is no official definition or height above which a building may be classified as a skyscraper. One common feature is having a steel framework from which curtain walls are suspended, rather than load-bearing walls of conventional construction.
In context, a relatively small building may be considered a skyscraper if it protrudes well above its built environment and changes the overall skyline. The maximum height of structures has progressed historically with building methods and technologies. Also lacking an official definition, the term 'Supertall' has arisen for the current generation of exceptionally tall buildings.

Arranha-céu ou arranha-céus é a denominação popular de edifícios dotados de uma altura singular frente aos seus demais. Estes prédios normalmente possuem caráter multifuncional, sendo capazes de abrigar estabelecimentos residenciais, comerciais, de serviços, entre outros. A sua presença no espaço urbano, quando destacada de tecidos urbanos dotados de menor gabarito (altura média das edificações), constitui-se em geral como uma referência ou marco para a cidade, embora ele também possa gerar problemas vários ligados à mobilidade urbana, consumo de energia e segurança.

超高層建築物（ちょうこうそうけんちくぶつ）は、高層建築物の中でも特に高い建築物である。超高層ビル（ちょうこうそうビル）ともいう（以下、「超高層ビル」を用いる）。どの程度の高さ以上の建築物を超高層ビルと呼ぶかについては、統一された明確な基準はない（#定義参照）。
"A skyscraper is a tall, continuously habitable building of many stories, often designed for office and commercial use. There is no official definition or height above which a building may be classified as a skyscraper. One common feature is that skyscrapers tend to make use of a steel framework structure from which walls are suspended, rather than having load-bearing walls as seen in conventional buildings."
