Archaeologist in the sky

Way up on the scaffold, see the man with the camera?
That's our boss, fearless Zvi.
What won't an archaeologist do for a good photo of his excavation site!


Many other angles on the sky over at Sky Watch Friday.
Go over and crane your neck with us.

  17. I be that building won't last as long as the artefacts you are excavating. Like the crane against the sky.

  30. Great photo! I have such a fear of heights, I'm afraid the site would go unrecorded if I had to be so high.
