This is Dubai Golf Club's main building. Some how reminds me of the Sydney Opera House. Don't know why, but it does.

I see the resemblence as well Ali. Have you ever been to the Dubai seven's rugby tournament? Would be great to see some action shots, crowd shots from an event like that!

I agree Ali...the Sydney Opera House was the first thing that came to mind when I saw this. Pretty impressive architecture for a golf club. Nice job!

Yep, I thought of the opera house as well. If there were a golf club like that here i might even take up the sport.

It definitely resembles the Sydney Opera House. I guess it's because of the sail effect.

Every time you post a city scape, I am completely amazed at the architecture in and around where you live, Ali. It's amazing.

I really quite like how you have shot this image because the golf course is really set apart from the surrounding buildings.

Nice Clubhouse! At least the course looks flat with few bunkers. ;-)

I've watched Finding Nemo dozens of times, (my older son's fav movie right now). It does look like the opera house.

Again, what a beautiful city you photograph.
