I’ve not had time lately to take photographs, and before that the photos I did take were all very “factual”. I’d like to spend time on some more abstract photography…
Star Market, Rahat
Shouk al-majid (“star market”), a fruit and vegetables market in Rahat, Israel’s only Beduin city and the largest Beduin settlement in the world.
Rahat has 33 separate neighborhoods, of which 32 are inhabited by single tribes.
Camels, ‘Um Batin

Tel Aviv beach life
The beach has always been a big part of Tel Aviv life and culture.

cities and eyes
A few more photos from the disposable camera project. I like the way these turned out – not sharp, slightly hazy. They feel more photographlike. I also liked that there was a limited number of pictures on the roll, and that once one was taken there was no way to see how it turned out. You took the photo, then it was over. It was somehow liberating.
I am going to take a break now for a while. I have been thinking of doing this for a while. I need to think about new projects.
