I love the detail of the architecture and you have caught it well. It reminds me of the temple close to my house. For years my daughters thought that it was a castle.

Elena,

I see that you are the owner of a 5D mark II and I wanted to ask you snmth.
I'm thinking to buy this camera as my second camera because it is full frame camera, and for portraits landscapes I believe this makes a huge difference. I have my 7D for action ( very fast). What is your opinion about this canon camera ?

Hi Alex!

Well it is an incredibile camera, just like everybody says!
I chose this one against the 7D because of the full frame. full frame requires a little bit of adaptation, and at the beginning I had a little of a hard time to get use to the fact that my 200 mm really is only a 200 now. On the other side, my 24 is now really a 24! :)
I love it and I think it was a great choice, for me it is an exceptional camera while I moved to it from my 350D ... So a big difference.
Commands are good and no bug surprise as all canons.
I do not know the weight of the 7D but respect To my old one it changes a lot!!
in short: I would buy it again and again!

Hope it helps!

Thank you Elena,
It is my first wekend with the new 5D mark II. It is indeed vey similar in weight as the 7D. I just have to get used to the full frame indeed and the rather noisy clicks it makes. The 7D is so silent but it doesn´t matter. They are for a perfect couple which I will use for totally different things.
