Photographer’s Note
When
The voices pound the urban pump
The sky is cloudy with the industrial exhale
The streets are crowded with too much dead time
The tempo of this human race is pressing my heart
Then I
Take my time and step out of my mind
Take a walk to my haven, my hidden paradise
Where the city always sleeps and my dreams awake
Where I can hide behind walls of imagination and go free

Perfection!
Did you use an infared filter for the effect? I like the grass in the foregroung, it gives the photo a real sense of depth. The clouds make the photo much more dramatic and your point of view is very good.

Ahh, an interesting infrared shot here, I like it... I have seen some cool effects done on film and I am glad to see you can do this in digital also. A very strange scene you have created and good composition!

Very interesting & surreal shot! The colours have come out amazingly with the electric blue hues and paper like plants in the bottom corner.

The color is incredible... and also the effect of the clouds in the water.
I like the contrast between the white, gray and blue.
It gives a feeling of cold and lonelyness.
Thanks for sharing,
Nicolas.

Un paysage qui nous projette dans un monde de rêve éveillé. J'aime l'opposition des couleurs avec le blanc des roseaux et des nuages comme c'est étrange !

Hi Gilad,
The image is beautiful and clear....Judging by your notes you haven't used any post processing ...which is hard to believe. Even so the beauty of this image is the simple two colours used turquoise-navy and the white which is so unusual in its simplicity and uniqueness. A beautiful photo.

Great out-of-this-world scenery, Gilad!
Good compo with the reed on the right and the BG lake tranquil waters. The wild skies add to the drama the IR gives here, and it does look like it was taken on another planet...Great take!
