Fire at Dusk!, a photo from Sharjah, East

Photographer's Note

This was an especially captivating picture for me because of the warm colours, reflections and discovering the ability to take pictures at low speed if I kept my hands really still :)

This is a view from our balcony overlooking the corniche - I see it every day but this picture still attracts me!

What a great picture. It certainly does look like the building is on fire - I thought it was at first till I read your note.

A dramatic way to show a sunset. The figures at the bottom of the shot add a feeling of a gentle pace which suits the mood.

I will heading to Sharjah in early January, your shots have certainly added a sense of anticipation. I hope you have more of such images and places up your sleeve.

Very nice compo Hamza. Good centered two trees at the bottom, and very good cathced sun reflection on the building. I like especially lantern lights on the street, also reflection of the sun on water.
Well done.
Regards, Don.

I like your balcony view! Especially as my place in San Francisco has no view at all..
Very good that there is a little figure at the bottom, with a lampost answering (as best as possible) the glorious reflection from the building.

Good picture, Shafeek ! I particularly like the gilded reflection on the building and this environment of beginning of evening. I don't have the same view from my balcony !

Very nice urban picture, I love the golden sun in the skyscraper! Also a good composition with the trees at the bottom.

For a second there I thought that this building really was on fire. This building reflects the sun amazingly, very well captured indeed.
