Architecture: Honorable Mention 2015 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Dubai is a symbol of the future-present state of a city born in the sands but raised in the clouds. This photo is part of a series called "Dubaiisms". They are visual aphorisms of the spirit of the region realized with a spectrum of tones, multiple photographic methods and a "deliteralist" approach to capture abstract portraits of its distinct architectural character and its vibrancy and velocity as an international city embracing its destiny. www.silverzenphotography.com
