In earlier times, Dubai was a small settlement of fisherman’s and pearl divers. Nowadays the city of Dubai developed to an important economic and touristic centre, worldwide. Since the last 25 years the city changed completely. More than 200 skyscrapers (above 150m) and new districts where built. The city and the population increased extremely. The series with views of cityscapes shows different aspects of this new way of constructing and living.
