2020-11-15 BRIDGE IN DUBAI
I think Dubai is pretty deserted these days too. The photo is from better times. I went on a foray through Dubai by night with my wife, Karin. I took the opportunity to photograph the incredible architecture and was thrilled by this curved bridge.

2019-12-10 THE GREAT MOSQUE
Sheikh Zayed Mosque in Abu Dhabi is one of the most beautiful buildings I have ever seen. It’s sheer size, architecture, and construction is overwhelmingly impressive. Inside and outside, you can explore so many details and perspectives. You have to take care of your clothing and pull off your shoes in some places, and you are not allowed to cross the barriers, but you are entirely free to take photos. So I shot a lot. Since I was there in the later afternoon, I stayed there until the night. I could fully participate in the golden and the blue hour.

2019-01-05 WATER GAMES ON FIRE
Spectacular city of Dubai with spectacular water-shows in front of the Burj Khalifa. The lightning appears like water under fire. It starts at about 7 pm, I was in a hurry to get down with the speed lift from the Burj Khalifa. My wife stayed calm, but for me, it was essential to get some decent shots of the water parade.
