Jerusalem's Festival of Light in the Old City can start only when it is dark, i.e. after 8 pm.
Last night at 7:54 the sky above Damascus Gate was turning pretty shades of blue and pink.
Very soon the air got cool and the sky got dark and they began the projection of "Tree of Life" by Heinz Kasper of Germany.

This virtual tree is for ABC Wednesday's V day.
.
P.S. - Even better was how they projected "I LOVE JERUSALEM" onto the gate in the 2011 Festival of Light! See my post for the photos.

How thrilling and fascinating. I would have loved to witness the Virtual Tree of Life.
ReplyDeleteI love this Dina! I have a fondness for Damascus Gate. On my second visit, I stayed at the American Colony Hotel, so I traveled through that gate every day.
ReplyDeleteDo you mean that they project the Tree of Life using the walls as a screen? What a wonderful idea! I'd love to see it.
ReplyDeletea strong VISUAL.

ReplyDeleteShabbat shalom, Dina.
Very great idea for V! This must have been spectacular. I admire you for the travelling you do from your place to Jerusalem. I know that it is not easy and a lot of waiting.
