A few snaps from Abu Dhabi.....(again)

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Second trip to Abu Dhabi.....I'll let the pics do the talking.

More info on blog if you wanna read more on it, I won't clog it up here. http://www.danfreemanphotography.com/2011/03/abu-dhabi-re-visit/

Had to visit here....despite my hatred of Ferrari!

This thing is fast!! Wow......

Two more days to go here, not sure what I'll get up to when I finish work.

Thanks

 

[Philip.]

Love the one with the shoes.

 

[Craigus]

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Thanks

Forgot the interior shot from the mosque:

 

[Kane.]

Wow :approve: you have made me want to go there.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Abu Dhabi or Ferrari World?

Abu Dhabi is alright.....don't think I would come here on holiday though. Not much to do. Desert ride, shopping, sun bath, more shopping......that's about it!

 

[Tony Hunter]

Warmer than Llandow?

 

[Riad]

Awesome!

 

[joebonthuys]

I am always amazed by your pictures, how do you always get such sharp pictures and such good colours? Do you do much post processing?

Anyhow great work as usual

 

[Scott™]

Amazing mate.

Thanks!

Not much post processing at all. The black and white shots were obviously converted, but most other shots have some re-cropping to adjust horizon etc.

The last shot of the mosque had a bit of editing in RAW to bring out detail in the darker mosque itself.

 

[Ali]

I envy your pics! So sharp and well thought out!

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Few more from a stroll near the hotel today....wasn't up for doing much...pretty knackered if I'm honest

Now I'm hungry.....so off to one of the restaurants......

 

[Nickson]

Amazing photography!

[Gally]

Immense as always Dan.

 

[DeeKay86]

PMSL! I was going to say the exact same thing. Platform Reebok Classics ftw!

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

lol didnt notice that if I'm honest!

Few more from my last day there:

Another trip to Ferrari world!!

Riding the Formula Rossa.....front seat.....in the dark = top 10 experience in my life! Awesome!

How do you get your shots so crystal clear and perfect colours?!

Even the one through the car window is superb!

 

[D4N13L]

I want to be you

 

[PinkoCommie]

Thanks

Forgot the interior shot from the mosque:

Wow! Is that a single shot or have you HDR'd it? The colours are amazing.

Easy....shoot Nikon!

Seriously though....I'm not sure....I'm just doing minimal processing, then resizing for the web.

No HDR. I HATE HHD, unless it's done properly which I can't do.

It was about 5 portrait shots (panoramas are better done in portrait as you get less distortion) stitched together.

Thanks

A beautiful collection of photos, Dan. As well as being technically great they also capture the locations perfectly - top drawer!

Fair enough I know what you mean, my attempts have been a bit gash, but I can't even get a single exposure looking like that shot yet :-(

Practice, practice, practice I think

 

[dubster]

Some amazing shot of Abu Dhabi, makes me want to drive down with my camera, its a pity you never got out to the Rainbow Sheikhs car collection its housed in a pyramid in the desert not too far out of town its a great place.

 

[XRS 27]

Awesome as always, makes me want to go! Hopefully I will be over in Nov/Dec this year

 

[Tigger]

Bloody class those!
