Shot of the main mosque in Abu Dhabi taken on my recent trip to Dubai

Camera:	Nikon D600
Lens:	Nikon AF-S Nikkor 14-24mm f/2.8G ED
Submitted:	Friday, 31st May, 2013 11:55 (GMT)
Taken:	Monday, 6th May, 2013
Focal length:	14 mm
Shutter speed:	1/400 sec
Aperture:	F10
ISO:	100
Notes:	I knew this would be a "challenge" to get the entire shot in 1 frame, and manage the perspective distortion caused by shooting at 14mm...and the low contrast caused by the almost "White Out" shot...
