Together

This started out being a picture taken for the paper during election day (see voting card in man's hand) 

- and ended up being edited and transformed to a 52Frames photo for the theme QUOTE :)

I used a quote from Kohelet:

Two are better than One, 

for they get a greater return for their labor. 
For should they fall, one can raise the other: 
but woe to him who is alone when he falls and there is no one to raise him....
Kohelet 4:9-10

The streets of Jerusalem

Kamcha D'Pascha - קמחא דפסחא

Kamcha D'Pascha in Meah Shearim, Jerusalem.

The mitzva of giving charity (food) to the poor prior to the holiday of Pesach (passover). In Meah Shearim they have a one day mass distribution of essential food products for the holiday.

My take for 52 Frames "Breaking the rules" challenge

Juggling in Tel Aviv

Had a great day in Tel Aviv yesterday. Walked around, took pics and had fun :) Next to the beach we met this Swedish girl, Katarina, practicing her juggling act.

...and another one from the Circus Festival...

.... though not really part of the festival ;)
 

My hat, your hat

HEAT!

Not long ago I joined this facebook photo group called Fifty-Two Frames. Every week there is a theme, and all participants post their take on the theme. This week - very appropriately - was HEAT!
Here is my take. It was about 36 degrees that day...

And a couple more from the same HOT day in Ramat Gan :)

Hello from Oslo

So here we are in Oslo - I must say I was looking forward to going out and taking lots of pics... but guess what, it's been raining almost non stop! As much as I am loving the rain (escaping the boiling hot Israeli summer),

 it puts a bit of a stopper for taking pics....

SMS... ?

Went to Jerusalem yesterday with my good friend Mirjam - me: running around taking pics of all sorts of interesting things, she: having a good laugh at me taking pics of "all sorts of interesting (??!!??) things :)))))

General strike.... garbage!

Last week there was a general strike in Israel - no banks, no postoffices, no trains, no..... people to collect the garbage. Luckily, in Modiin they DID collect the garbage, in Tel Aviv they didn't.......

Laughing dolls

While in Tel Aviv the other day, I saw these dolls displaying underwear... I actually found them to be rather scary!!
