israel

tick one set of pictures off of the mountain of work prints i still have to produce.

israel was suppose to be my vacation from my vacation spend a week chilling out going to parties, seeing old friends. and it was partially that, for a good chunk of the time i just focused on eating seeing sites. telaviv was a short version of new york in my head. everyone spoke english. it was all too easy i would walk from shop to shop, drinking coffee or sit by the beach when i got a free moment.

jerulsalem was different, my free moments were spent on via dolorosa -- the final steps of jesus before he was crucified. so there i was, with a camera shooting three or four rolls a day of it, also knowing i would be back some year to get spend a good month there for holy week rituals.

i finally did get to relax when i got back to italy and made my way towards corfu -- but that is a different set of images.
