Dawn

Dawn was dawning this morning at 5:55 as I waited for the first bus out of my moshav/village.
What a view (with a little bit of zoom) from the street near my house! Jerusalem on the horizon. And you can just see the mast of the new Calatrava Bridge of Strings.

  5. I love that time of the morning, Dina. Not for me the sleeping in until 7am! I like the haze or smoke that I can see here hanging over the valley. I think that the air would smell very nice over there.

  14. I gather the bridge is somehow related to David's Lyre? It does look like one could pluck some dark strings in your photo. You have a beautiful view of the city; I hope no one constructs any blockades to your view.

  23. Lovely transition of dark foreground to middle, to sky. The light haze adds good atmospheric perspective.
