Al Yamm Villa Resort @ Sir Bani Yas Island

            'Al Yamm Villa Resort' by Anantara @Sir Bani Yas Island

It's always a pleasure to return to Sir Bani Yas Island in Abu Dhabi's Western Region. This place will never get old. 
Crystal clear waters, unspoilt sandy and rocky beaches unlike any in the UAE, free roaming wildlife, spectacular sunsets, crystal clear skies and starry nights. Sir Bani Yas Island is a remote paradise straight out of the movie.
If you haven't been there yet, you're missing out big time.

This photograph is a combination of hand painted luminance masks, dynamic blending and 9-stop HDR photography which is my favourite way of processing stylized, impressionistic architectural scenes. 
As usual, I tried to express what I felt in this place, not necessarily what I saw.
