This is a beautiful photo! It makes me long to visit Israel again. I visited there twice in 1992 and still miss this wonderful country!

Haha, small world indeed
There's a term for that in English we call it Jewography (Jew + Geography)
Put two Jews in a room together, and somehow they will find the connection ;o
I'll be seeing you today then, I need to come and develop another of the same photograph, for myself this time

You are welcome! It has a beautiful feel to it. You can see that people are passing by, the world carries on with day to day things but for some, like this one, God comes first, and if we put God first, all else will taken care of. I love that this seems to be reflected here!
may I put a watch on you?

For sure, please feel free
I spent a night in the Old City of Jerusalem during a Jewish holiday, walking around from 22:00 till 15:00!! It was just me, my camera and the outside world. Needless to say, it was a special day, and I think because of that, I was more "in tune" with what my inner eye wanted to photograph.
But I guess that is what it is all about, isn't it, why we are all here? To share with others what we see, what we feel the need to capture and express.
I'm glad we're having this to-and-fro, I feel my "art" (if I may be as bold as to yet call it that) is coming alive.
But look at me, getting all soppy

My dream is to one day just quietly walk the streets of Jerusalem, take it all in. Also to go to Haifa and meet my lovely sister Rivka!
Yes, to share God's love and our life's experiences, express what we see & perhaps though art (as one way), reach out to others?
it is art, for it is your impression/expression of those things that you see as beautiful, sad, happy, inspirational, etc.
Hahaha! Nothing wrong with that, some peoples hearts are so hard, I prefer someone who can have the goodness of heart, to get 'soppy'!
Peace & love!

Well, come on then already!
Now you've got someone that can show you the ancient streets of Jerusalem, as well as the hub and bub of Tel Aviv's night life

I dearly wish I could! Finances do not allow at the moment, but if they ever do, I will be on the first plane I can get! I would much prefer your type of tour than the touristy arranged ones! Thanks!
