Spectacular Time Lapse Video Shows Dubai as You’ve Never Seen it Before [Video]

Abraj architecture Burj al-Arab Burj Khalifa Dubai Philip Bloom Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed Al Maktoum

by Max Eddy | 4:00 pm, January 28th, 2012

Cinematographer Philip Bloom, commissioned by the crown prince of Dubai Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed Al Maktoum, created this startlingly beautiful time lapse video called Abraj. The name is apparently the Arabic plural for “tower,” and refers to the iconic Burj Al Arab and the enormous Burj Khalifa. Though they are the centerpieces, the film introduces viewers to the stunning beauty of the city. Turn up the volume, make it full screen, and let the imagery just wash over your eyeballs.

ok, I guess I’ll be the fist to not try to sell a sex site. Tilt shift was impressive, photography well positioned for most shots, and the music beautiful. I’m very appreciative they listed the source at the end – turns out to get it from my county’s library I had to order the soundtrack to the movie ‘Master & Commander’. FYI in case you also like it, so I guess in a way I am hawking a site, kinda sorta…
