"The Dark Lens" by Cédric Delsaux is a Star Wars photo shoot unlike any other I've seen before. Urban Dubai is the setting for this shoot and I have to say, these pictures look hauntingly real.
Dubai just looks so desolate here. I could imagine that this is what Dubai would be like if the Empire stormed in and took over. The color scheme is perfect here; the gray and blue filters really help to set the mood. "The Dark Lens" is a must-see for any Star Wars fan.
