Kai Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 A few weeks ago I was in Abu Dhabi. The air temperature was comfortably below 30°C/85°F. Although the sky was rarely clear, there was - for a Central European - inconceivable amounts of UV light. Splendid :) Here are a few impressions. All photos with my Canon 6D-FS, EF lens 1:2.8 28mm (old version), ZWB 2 plus TSN 575, f 4.0 and 3200 ASA, shutter speed typically 1/90s. Denoising DxO PhotoLab. Toning in NIK-Tools Silver Efex.

Doug A Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Terrific images. The UV enhances the architecture quite a bit. I'd love to visit the area. Shooting UV handheld at 1/90 is amazing. Thanks for sharing, Doug A Link to comment
colinbm Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Excellent landscape UV photography, & so sharp. Link to comment
photoni Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 All very beautiful @Kai I was impressed by the cleanliness and sharpness of your 6D at ISO 3200 !!! I wonder why only UV shots and not some IR (to remove the haze) (but not of the last romantic shot :) Link to comment
GaryR Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Beautiful UV Cityscapes. Enjoyed them all ! Link to comment
Kai Posted June 10, 2023 Author Share Posted June 10, 2023 Thank you for the kind comments. I'm glad you like the pictures :) @Toni: Of course, I also took many pictures in the NIR and VIS. Especially the date palms looked very impressive in the NIR. Here I just showed the UV pictures :) Link to comment
OlDoinyo Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Well seen. I like the framing and textural rendition of these photos. Link to comment
Unscenerie Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 These photos give a surreal feel, love em. Link to comment
Kai Posted June 18, 2023 Author Share Posted June 18, 2023 Yes, I agree with you :) I think it's because of the "unsuitably" bright sky (which scatters UV light particularly strongly - even more than blue light). The last picture is my personal favorite picture... Link to comment
Andrea B. Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 A terrific travel series. Thanks, Kai! I am fascinated by the architecture there. The intricate patterns on the mosques are beautiful. Link to comment
