The tall building you can see in the distance is the Burj Dubai, which earlier this month became the world's tallest structure at 629m – a shade over two thousand feet. When it's finished it's expected to exceed 700m and have over 160 floors. To put that in perspective, this shot was taken from round about the 34th floor of an apartment building; i.e. the Burj Dubai will eventually be around five times higher than this vantage point. When it's finished I'd really like to take a shot from the top :-)
I took two more shots from this building that I like, one of which I'll post tomorrow, the other of which will go up on Monday.
Oh, and many thanks for all the great comments on yesterday's image – they were much appreciated.
