Long may the flags of America and of Israel, land of my choice, wave together in harmony in blue skies. And may the dreaded mushroom cloud never darken our sky, amen amen.
Immediately upon hearing about the victims in the bulldozer rampage yesterday, the American Ambassador lowered the Stars and Stripes to half-mast at the U.S. embassy in Tel Aviv. Tonight the Fourth of July reception is underway at the Ambassador's residence. Sorry, no pictures--I wasn't invited. That's OK.
The third flag here, at Hadassah Ein Kerem campus, is of the Hadassah Medical Organization.Sky Watch Friday bloggers come together at Tom's blog, Welcome to Wiggers World.
It is well known that we Portuguese once sailed the seven seas searching for new lands, wealth and adventures.
ReplyDeleteWe were brave in those days and gave the world new worlds!
Luckily I don’t have to sail the big oceans on a small ship to sea the wonders of our world …
No Sir, I just need to check with Mr. Tom, the finest host there is, for a trip around the world with SKY WATCH TOURS and with a click here, a click there I am quickly in the USA, England, Brazil, Italy, China, Australia, Finland … well, everywhere.
And on each stop I come to see a little marvel of our world under a great sky!
Hope you can come and see my piece of the sky at lenses & visions
Good one! Three flags in harmony! Would like to see a couple of hundred more (in harmony!)
ReplyDeleteCheers, Klaus
I think this is going to be the best Sky Watch Friday yet. The things I have seen are very encouraging and the photography is spot on.
ReplyDeleteI really admire your photography skills and your critical eye for composition, lighting and texture.
