Aleksandar Pasaric
Aleksandar Pasaric’s breathtaking photograph of Dubai pierces through the clouds—both literally and artistically—capturing a city that seems to float between dream and reality. The image is a triumph of atmospheric timing and architectural reverence, as the towers of Dubai rise like monuments from a sea of fog, their glass and steel softened by the embrace of morning mist.
What makes this image extraordinary is its duality. It feels futuristic yet serene, vast yet intimate. The sharp lines of the skyscrapers are in perfect counterpoint to the delicate, ephemeral nature of the clouds, creating a composition that is both visually stunning and emotionally transporting. The central placement of the twisting tower—bathed in light and framed by vapor—anchors the image with a sense of vertical grace and narrative momentum.
Pasaric’s lens doesn’t just show a city; it elevates it into myth. This is urban photography at its most poetic, where skyline meets sky, and human ambition meets nature’s ethereal veil. An award-winning masterpiece that reminds us why cities like Dubai inspire awe.
