Dubai, UAE
They love their gold in Dubai.
Something here reminds me of Las Vegas.
One building after another was built bigger, gaudier, sexier and/or costlier than the previous.
Then the recession came, and building froze (with the cranes still in place just sitting there).
It is a perfect place for a helicopter tour to get the perspective.
I couldn’t get a shot of the nonexistent security. I think all the terrorists are out of town on business.
