If You Never Dreamed of Visiting Dubai, You Will After Watching this Timelapse Video

It only takes about 8 minutes to let the magic of Dubai’s ethereal sunrise seep in the fabric of your aspirations. Put on your headphones, turn up the volume, set your full screen, and let this breathtaking scenery take you on a tour through the foggy skies of the UAE’s favorite daughters: Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

Shot by Emirates-based photographer Beno Saradzic, this video went viral earlier this year, featuring a heavenly timelapse made up of thousands of still photos accompanied by stunning music especially composed for this project by award-winning artist Vladimir Persan.

Beyond relates the seemingly limitless power of human imagination to create and transform on a scale far beyond our own. It is a tall tale of inspiration, courage, determination, tenacity and perseverance through adversity. Shot at locations throughout Abu Dhabi and Dubai, Beyond’s implicit story is about much more than the success of the UAE. What is unfolding in the UAE is a shining, symbolic example of the towering achievements of mankind as a whole”, says the artist on vimeo.

Acclaimed for his mastery in aerial photography and his audiovisual craftsmanship, Saradzic will present a time-lapse photography spark session next September 13 at Gulf Photo Plus in Dubai.
