Posted: Sat Nov 26, 2005 10:25 pmVery nice series there.
My sister in law has been to the Burj (for lunch) and said it was breathtaking. There is a duplicate of the ground floor on floor 20 or something and they have this illusion where you dont thin the lift is going to stop in time on the ground floor. It's meant to be awesome, and it's a place I want to visit oneday.

Posted: Sat Nov 26, 2005 11:06 pmRippa photos, of a ridiculously crazy place, I'm sure most of you have seen that email forward with Agassi and Federra(sp?) playing tennis at the top (awesome fews, but no one would want to retrieve any lost balls).
Posted: Sat Nov 26, 2005 11:20 pmWOW, WOW & WOW 
What more can I say, Fantastic images
I've seen emailed and travel brochure type shots of this place but nothing like these. Bravo I have wanted to see a photographers view of this place and you certainly have delivered the goods.
I noticed the palm tree island "thingy" (you mentioned) they are building in the background of the shot of you & your missus. Can you tell me where they are building the "island of the world"? Would it be visible from the mainland or is it way off the coast?
Well done & regards,

Posted: Sun Nov 27, 2005 1:55 amThese are great, the 2nd one makes you feel like jumping on a plane and heading off to dubai to experience such exquisute sunsets. The view from the top was amazing too. Would they have let you setup a tripod inside that restuarant, or woudl that just be uncourteous?
