Sitting on a flight from a quick trip up to NY after being out in Vegas and Dubai for the last couple of weeks. Man, does the jet lag kill right about now\u2026<\/p>\n

I want to catch up with you guys on stuff that I\u2019ve been working on as of late. Could not have been happier to the folks at Gulf Photo Plus Dubai <\/a>for having me out there for the week. Got to make some friends, speak for Western Digital <\/a>(hey guys! Nerd achievement unlocked!) , and re-connect with some really close friends from another time in my life. It goes without saying that when you\u2019re at GPP \u2013 you are working. Hard. But when you see the kind of passion that comes from the folks who attend that \u2013 you just want to keep giving. Great energy.<\/p>\n

I had just a couple of days off to go make some pictures. The last time that I was in Dubai I only got a couple of minutes to shoot the iconic Burj Khalifa on my way to the airport. This time around I wasn\u2019t going to make that mistake.<\/p>\n

This time, I scoured the Internet. I flew in and out of Google Earth. I checked buildings and locations for a cool vantage point. I emailed people, tweeted others, and tried to come up with a multiple prong approach to get a shot that I would be happy with. There are no shortages of people doing cityscapes of Dubai \u2013 and some people doing them incredibly well (Check out Daniel Cheong<\/a>). I just wanted to come here, scout the location, and do something that I felt had my fingerprint on it.<\/p>\n

\nPacked with several options, I headed out w my friend Martin to the Burj area. A tech problem on my end shut down one option.. but I had other plans.<\/p>\n
