Beautiful Photos Of 2010s Dubai Look Like 1930s Science Fiction

Looking at these photos, you might think you’re looking at stills that inspired “Metropolis.” These shots, taken by photographer Martin Becka in 2009, were all taken on 19th century equipment. Such a beautifully alien look at what’s already so awesome. [Martin Becka, Moco Loco]
