Description
Catching my breath,
Enough with the running
This city has boxed me in
Giving me the illusion of freedom

I've been running for days
Escaping the walls of my sanity
The city wants me to call it a home
Giving me the illusion of freedom

I look at the clouds forming above
Little power lines cross my mind
Trees are reaching out from the pavement
Giving me the illusion of freedom

All the cars, shops, buildings, crowd
Can't all of us open our eyes and see?
We are all boxed in this city
And we can't break free


****

This is my first submittion with my new camera. The Canon 5D. I'm really exited about it, and I think it will be a love story. I will still keep using my Nikon D70 for Infra Red shots, and for a back up camera, but The "Full frame" monster is something I'be been planning on for a long time, and I finally did it.

Canon 5D
Canon 17-40 lens
Tel Aviv, Israel.

THANK YOU! you actually didn't make it a cliche, you emphasized the reflection rather than the original, sooooo well done!!!. Also if you have the time, I would really really appreciate it if you would stop by my gallery Thank you!

How do you create such incredibly sharp pictures? Currently I have a D50, the colors are wonderful... but it's missing that sharpness that I crave.

Any insight on this?

Thank you, I enjoy all of your photo's.

I don't know how good is your technique and lenses, but if you do the right things and use the quality lenses, you should get sharp photos

you are a brilliant photographer! the colors and the clairity, everything is perfect! it's always interesting to hear what the photographer thinks of the shot though. is there anything you would have done different if you had the chance to shoot this again?

Great shot and how are you liking the 5D? I have a d70 as well but invested too much in lenses to make the switch to 5D myself which I have thought about numerous of times.
