United Arab Emirates Abu Dhabi Skyline
Experience a stunning seaside view of the Abu Dhabi skyline captured from a low angle, with rolling waves prominently featured in the foreground. Using a 35mm lens, this perspective highlights the dynamic contrast between the natural movement of the sea and the sleek urban architecture. The composition adds depth and energy, making it an ideal spot for capturing both dramatic cityscapes and lively seascapes.
Photography Tips
A 35mm lens is perfect for this scene, offering a natural field of view that balances foreground details and background skyline. Shoot during the golden hour to capture warm, soft light reflecting on the water and buildings. To emphasize the texture of the waves, use a faster shutter speed—around 1/250s or higher—to freeze their movement without losing detail.
