color

Thanks to Hanukkah we had one day off last week so i could finally disconnected myself from this stupid box and have a picnic with my family.
While the food was getting prepared I dragged my cousin Michael to come along for a walk.
Made some forest photos but they're not that interesting.On our way back we saw this horse, who was standing still for a few long minutes until i managed to focus properly.
He looked quite sad to me.Maybe I'm wrong,I'm not a horse specialist.
Whatever.

the little boy looked as he was grown with the horses;)

My Mom told me that all the photos i take of grandpa look sad,so I tried to take a happy photo.
Have I mentioned that Fuji Reala is an amazing film?

Yum!


Michael was carefully supervising that no drop of beer shall be left in the bottle.


On the behalf of Hanukkah we had to bring out home made candlesticks for Typography class.
So we had a little ceremony lighting them which was amusing.I took just 2 shots because...well,it wasn't interesting.

Later we went to Yitzik's where Vika gave Anna a private lesson

2 frames accidentally became one.Where is Dan hiding?

That's a little oink on Dan's plate. It fell straight out of Dan's pita into the hummus on the plate.

Yitzik!


As soon as Guy discovered that there is a new bakery nearby he dragged us to check it out.
the Sufganyot (doughnuts) were looking good but we bought a little Bourekas which was o.k.



I have this predilection of re shooting things or scenes with certain changes.
A
series of dried apricots was shot about 4 years ago and now these peels of mandarins which are also orange.I put them on the same old desk and turned the same lamp on.
Next time I'll make sure the focus is spot on;)

pretty much expresses my state of mind these days...


frame number 36.
I love you fuji reala!

New oldies

Hip hip horay (i can't believe i just wrote that...) I finally have a new comp and monitor so I can see that some of my photos are not so damn dark as I used to think!
I went through older negatives and found some forgotten frames.

When i was passing near this
welder guy he was working without a protection mask (under the burning sun), which is quite dangerous as far as i know.He noticed me, stopped his worked and said that it wasn't healthy for me to stare at the fire like that."And what about you?" I asked "I've been doing this for 20 years" he evoked. Good for him I don't use a flash.

this one was actually taken by mistake,but i like how it came out. Some kind of graphic abstraction with the Azrieli Towers on the background looking as they were stitched in the sky.


"stop and take a ticket"







oops


i have some color stuff as well,will probably post it tonight or tomorrow.

С наступающим Новым годом!
Merry Christams people!

Red Eyes

I've been a bad blogger:no words nor photos.But it doesn't mean I don't do stuff.it's just I don't have the time or will to post.The camera/s is always with me.They kinda give me backaches,but hell,i prefer that than missing a moment.

My homework require much time and energy,so after spending hours in front of the monitor the last thing i wanna do is to write a blog entry, I'd prefer to throw the comp out of the window.
Sometimes the computer makes me feel miserable.Sitting in front of it until 5am or not going to sleep at all is making me ill.
It may sound as an exaggeration but i know some of you can relate to the feeling.

These frames are from a roll of Kodak Ultra 400 I shot recently.
Never shot it before and not quite satisfied with the colors.
Don't know, mabe I'm used to fuji superia.

These are for the meanwhile.3 bw rolls are still to come,hopefully this week.

Happy Hanukah everyone:)
(I only ate 1
doughnut!)

a memmorial service for our departed soldiers


Dan is verifying once again that "The Israeli" is a shitty newspaper


This once was taken by Dan,who was disppointed when he realized his focusing skills sucked.
I promised him he'll be better next time.
My ear on the left is really sharp though:)



Guy's having the usual salad and shakshuka at Ana's



G'dnight all!

I'm kinda exhausted.
Don't feel like writing at all.
Good night.
