holy land

this woman looks like she walked right out of the old testament

jerusalem is a city of many faces............

hasidic jew praying at the western wall

felafel vendor

hurrying home on the holiday of shavuot

pilgrims at the site of christ's deposition

........and perspectives........

light streaming into the church of the holy sepulchre

moveable coffee break

strolling the city walls in sight of the dome of the rock

intersection of islam, hasidism and israeli police on the via dolorosa

mosques and churches live side by side

persephone in the underworld, walking the tunnels beneath the city

brotherly love

next stop - the dead sea and masada
