Enjoy this lyrical interpretation of New York City, shot and edited by talented videographer Andrew Clancy.

Not only does "A Year in New York" give you a good look at the city and its vast array of people and sights. It demonstrates the gorgeous quality of expertly-framed HD video shot with a Canon EOS 7D digital SLR, along with a Canon PowerShot S95 digital camera. But keep in mind, it's not the camera that makes this video look so sweet — it's the man behind it. Says Clancy on his Vimeo page:

"Living in New York I'd grab my Canon 7D, or S95, and shoot footage of what was going on around me. It seemed like a never ending project and you could stay filming life in New York for a long time. But eventually I put my camera down and started to edit. Here's the end result, it's a bit rough and ready but that's life in the Big Apple I guess."

He's being modest. Notice the icing on this glorious layer cake of video and music: The delicate interplay between the sharp shooting and the haunting song accompanying it, all artfully edited together by Clancy.

The song is "We Don't Eat" by Irish singer-songwriter James Vincent McMorrow, available as a free download on Amazon for U.S. customers.
