Perspective of buildings in Dubai. The Marina and Jumeriah Beach Residence.

Is it small and far away or near and tall? 

I'll leave Father Ted to explain that one to you, it's something we struggle with on occasion even though we've lived here for 6 years.

No 1 is the Cayan Tower.
No 2 is Princess Tower.
This photo was taken from our apartment on the 32nd floor, The Royal Beach Residence.

This photo showing where the first photo was taken from, was taken from the Palm, to give you an idea of the perspective.

    What a clever couple of images! It really is amazing to see quite how fearless the Emeratis are with their building projects. This really does put the city in perspective.

    These are really clever photos. The first one does make them look like the buildings are so close together. x

    That's interesting, I'd imagine even the smaller buildings to the right would still look tall to people in the UK

    Thank you for linking up to #MySundayPhoto

    Living rural as I do, this scene is positively surreal!

    I remember being blown away by the skyline in Dubai, the first time I saw it. We arrived at night and the illuminated buildings had a beauty of their own. Ours was a very brief visit, two years ago, on the way to Cape Town. I know, from reading your blog, that there have been many new buildings since we were there.#pocolo

    Wow! I would have had no idea from the first photo that the buildings weren't right next to each other.
