Burj Al Arab,Dubai

daze · 15th May 2008

shot with a gr1s
a must shoot view when in dubai
scanned and cropped
processed to simulate cross process/lomo feel
colours ok?

like the colors and grain.
but would have preferred the subject to fill more of the frame, and i would use photoshop to clean up the 'dirty' beach.

I believe there are too much noise.

Good processing, sans the noise.

thanks for the comments guys
the noise actually came from the poor scanning and wasnt done
as a post effect
i'd go to a diff lab next time

The LH portion has a few distracting elements. There seems to be too much dead space around the main subject as well.

I actually like the effect and colours. If you could fix the tilting horizon.....

Left side the arc/table can be removed.. this make the building stand out in the ruins..
The white board the man holds can be removed as well..

nice feel to the pic.
love the noise actually, adds a different touch to a shoot-to-death scene.
just fix the horizon and maybe brighten it a little.
