Lauren and Geoff

I hung out with Lauren and Geoff, who are my wife’s colleagues, at the Screen on the Green event and right at sunset we took a couple of shots. What an adorable couple!
It's amazing, what a great lens can do in low light condition, I mean, it was practically almost dark, even though it doesn't show in the photo.
Thanks Lauren and Geoff, for good times!

Summer Time and the Living’s Easy

The hot weather took a hiatus yesterday, in time for one of the coolest events of the summer – Screen on the Green. Hundreds of Washingtonians headed to the National Mall once the sun goes down to catch a screening of a Hollywood classic (yesterday’s movie was Arsenic and Old Lace). The event was a perfect excuse to enjoy the summer weather, a free movie and to snap a few shots of Washington’s landmarks.
Here are some and the 3rd photo is actually featured in about.com !

Daffy

Ok, I got a thing with ducks, did you know that? Saw this group of ducks yesterday at McPherson Square (probably landed for refueling and took off immediately).

Fun-day with Malinda and this dude, Hadar.

Last Friday, Hadar , who's in photo # 4 & 6,(and getting his butt kicked),and I grabbed a couple of cameras and lenses, a pretty girl named Malinda (who’s an amazing make-up artist by the way), a few outfits, and went out on a fun photo shoot day in DC.
We started at Jack’s Boathouse in Georgetown, under the Key Bridge on K. Street. Special thanks to Anna Popov for letting us use her location.

The BabaG

This little post is dedicated to my friend Marty who kindly cat-sat my Babaganoush while I was gone for our trip.
She's playing with his toy too! (Yes, I know, I need to have kids, I know that).
Thanks Marty!

Church of the Nativity

During the trip I spent two days in Jerusalem, toured the four quarters. Jewish, Armenian, Christian and Muslim quarters. I also saw the Church of the Nativity, where according to the Christian tradition, is believed to be the place where Jesus was born.
I used a wide angle lens and captured the amazing architecture of the place.



I'm back!

So, good to be back home, I made it back safely and back to work!
I actually found my little pocket camera today and got the photos of it, some were taken family and some by friends, I wanted to post those two of me and my beautiful wife, Ashley. Both are pretty rare moments as neither of us likes taking pictures. I guess that's why I am on the other side of the lens, right?
Anyway, the first one is in Rosh Hanikra and the second one is in Haifa, on the Carmel mountain behind Dan Panorama hotel with the beautiful view of the Golf of Haifa.

Rosh Hanikra - Israel - a second set

Just a few more of one of my favorite place in Israel, Rosh Hanikra. The caves inside the white rocks are amazing both on the inside and the outside. I recommend visiting that location if you are in the neighborhood.

Cesarea - ancient port city

My trip is almost over and I think I got enough milage to get a buisness class flight to Mars...
But, I always have energy to take more photos!
You can read more about this beautiful place, just Google the old port city’s name, “Cesarea”. I spent a couple of hours there today during sundown and walked around the ruins of this beautiful ancient city.
In the background you can see the city of Hadera and it’s huge power plant (coal) that delivers electricity to the entire north of Israel.

Lowest place on earth

At the Dead Sea, bordering between Israel and Jordan (on the Israeli side) I spent 2 days. Around 105 degrees and no shade - do the math.
It's considered one of the 7 wonders of the world. A sea, where nothing lives in it. The concentrate of salt in the water prevents all creatures from living in the water. hence the name, "Dead Sea".

Off route 90 south I pulled over just to take this shot from the highway right before arriving the the resort I stayed in. Beautiful place and since there is no other place like this on earth, you'll have to go there to see the rest for yourself!


We're all communicating

After visiting the beautiful city of Jerusalem, I chose to show a few photos from the western wall, the Kotel. Different people, different methods of communication.

First shots from my trip in Israel

I've managed to get just a few interesting shots while touring the country with my family. I've been to a vineyard in the south of the Golan Heights, called Chateau Golan, The beautiful Akko, the old port city in the north and Rosh Hanikra, the amazing and unique location right smack on the border with Lebanon, where waves of the Mediterranean have created those unique caves inside the rocks. a must see!
This is a first set of a few more to come soon!
Enjoy.
