The City of Lights


I Hind Saeed a Financial Services Student at Dubai Women's College. Even-though I am qualified as a Financial Services undergraduate student, I have the passion towards photography ever since I was a teenage. The opportunity for studying the course of Photography at college gave me the chance to expose my interest in Photography. I believe Photography is a source where people can show their everyday life in different point of views and every photo has a unique story to tell. Therefore, in this blog I will be sharing my passion in photography and especially in shooting at night in the City of Lights "Dubai". For many reasons Dubai is a city that never sleeps so there's always something interesting to photograph and the quality and layout of the lights in the city is interesting enough to capture. There's simply so much light it's rarely necessary to venture into the higher ISO regions, so the beautiful lights in the city can literally get some tonally very rich images covering a large dynamic range with little noise and reasonable shutter speeds.

The City of Lights


Zabeel 2, Dubai

The Burj Khailfa skyscraper  is a world-class destination and the magnificent centerpiece of Downtown Dubai, Dubai's new urban masterpiece. The world's tallest building is surrounded by hotels, must-visit shopping destinations and a world of entertainment options.  


Anatara Dubai The Palm Resort & Spa

On the edge of the eastern curve of the iconic Palm Jumeirah, an archipelago of islands connected to mainland, Anatara Dubai is a remarkable resort inspired by traditional Thai architecture in an Arabian setting. To me, Anatara Dubai is a place of real serenity and splendor as it offers my spirit an urban escape in a unique destination. A 15 minutes drive from home and within an easy reach of a plethora of exciting attractions including the Atlantis and other beautiful manmade scenarios I think its the best place for a perfect weekend getaway.

Whether on an epic journey or a weekend getaway, The Palm Jumeirah is my number one weekend getaway destination especially during the hot months in the city. Fridays are family days and nothing completes my Friday then being at the beach with my beloved ones. I love the beach and I admire my family most and the Palm fulfills all my needs.
