Tom Green's trips to Dubai

Let me begin.

The pics are in order.

The original


And the reflection




Communication in Dubai is very difficult








A nice looking facade




A construction update. But i donīt know anything about this building


It is dangerous, but he don`t care^


A construction pic but again i don`t know anything about this building.


It really surprised me that there is so much green.






A nice looking vila


More pic comes later.
At the end i think i will upload more than 100 pics.

Of course you can use them for this, because Dubai is really a real city.

it would be easier if you numerate the pics you post, then it's easier to refer to a photo when we give you the names

post #8 from top to bottom
the new etisalat tower
capital towers
park place
gate precinct @ the gate

post #1 top to bottom / under c pics
manazel towers
al mankhool tower

If you have seen my Tokyo pics you must have recognised that i like to make pics with no people in it. I am not good at making pictures of people. They always starring at my camera. When i made the pic with the old house and the tree on the sidewalk a women was hiding in the entry of the house. I waited before everybody was gone to make the pics with the sidewalk and the many green. But i have to admit that on my first walk through the city i haven`t seen many people. There are 2 reasons for it. The first: the people in Dubai love to drive with there car. The fuel is very very cheap. The second: i walked very unlucky. From my hotel to the port to the SZR and to Burj Dubau. On day 3 you can see many, many people on the streets.

I have seen that my pics are used for the u/c threads. I have forgotton to tell you the excat date. The pics are from april 5th.

Stupid Jetlack. Yesterday i woked up at 4 o`clock and today at 6.

But now i have time to upload more pics

Dubai is really green, but not natural.


I am a christian but i respect other religions.


Let`s destroy the old and build something new, something better.


Look at the green


A wall of skyscrapers.


It is not a pool.


More water.


The perfect job in a hot city


A nice pic of the tallest and the 3rd tallest in Dubai


Big construction


Tight


part one


part two


More green.




On my way to the EMAAR sales office.


The future.


A skyline shot from the EMAAR sales office.
