Winter in Tel Aviv

One of the blessings of my current job is the fact that I get to travel to Israel on a somewhat regular basis. The flight time is horrible, and I am there to work, but even so the trip provides me an opportunity to take some absolutely beautiful pictures along the way. 

Here are a a few apartment buildings on the drive to our office in Tel Aviv.
Taking pictures from a moving car is usually iffy at best, but this one came out well. The morning sun peeking over the clouds was a beautiful site.
The night I arrived, there was a thunderstorm. My hotel was at the port, so I was able to capture this beautiful north facing shot of the sea during the storm.
This was taken from the same point as the last shot, but facing south.

I hope to post some new great shots soon, so be on lookout!

Each time they happen I tell myself I will, but invariably I forget or am travelling or am washing my hair which is no mean feat when you think about it. After all, I don’t look to be going bald anytime soon, fingers crossed. This year though, oh this year has been a bit different.
