 Didn't do so well in voting, but I had fun taking this picture and enjoying the comments--this was shot from the rooftop of the Cayan Tower in Dubai, 73 floors up. I liked how the walls had a weird sci-fi feel to them. I should have included more of the city to the viewer's left.

Anyways, this was the most creative thing I could think of for a 'gun' shot and I'm glad I got some use out of my Star Trek pajamas :)
