Fifty-Two Frames: Shopping
Never gets old… Quick snap at a Target on Staten Island. I liked that with a little playing around, it looks more like a surreal alien world. Week 32: Shopping Fluorescent shopping wonderland.

Fifty-Two Frames: Glass.
It’s amazing how many bright sun shiny spots reflecting off car windows you’ll notice while walking around Jerusalem seeking out a glass photo. Week 31: Glass Behind a leafy flowered frame, shines a colorful window pane. Building on Bustanai in Old Katamon, Jerusalem.

Fifty-Two Frames: Natural.
I wanted to put some effort into this but I’m so surrounded by nature here that I didn’t know where to start. So I took Koala out, promising him a nature walk. He wanted to stay near our building and watch a moving truck get loaded. I suppose that’s only… natural. But I got him…

Fifty-Two Frames: Technology.
I love how the week’s theme tends to occupy my perspective between Sundays. It started with a truck, fascinating Koala, Bebe and I down the block from our building. It was a one-armed truck pulling giant bags of sand over a fence. It ended with me sweating under the summer sun, arranging a bouquet of gadgets in…

Fifty-Two Frames: Fire.
Had a bit of an existential crisis this week. I ended up writing to our Fifty-Two Frames organizer about how I wonder if it’s better to just end it rather than keep going at such a lower level than the professionals in the group. But no, I’m not a professional, and it’s not even about…

Fifty-Two Frames: Gems/Stones
As my husband pointed out, I haven’t taken out my ‘good’ jewelry since the night of our wedding. Well, that just goes to show you… we probably don’t need contents insurance. Cowboy Woody also has a very feminine facial structure. Ever notice that? And why shouldn’t cowboys be allowed a soft moment? Week 25: Gems/Stones…

Fifty-Two Frames: Doors.
This is a bit fitting; I took the photo at Tmol Shilshom, where I join the Writing Gym on Sundays. I can say after four sessions that it’s really managed to open me as a writer, and helped me to let go of a fear of being wrong or untrue in my storytelling. From listening…

Fifty-Two Frames: Out of Focus.
Some weeks I let the photo come to me, some weeks I try too hard, and some weeks I have one idea, and I do it once, and it works. I liked the yellow of the background to kinda indicate old vs new, giving the papers a parchment glow. But I sacrificed the natural color…

Fifty-Two Frames: Tasty.
Vegemite gets a bad rap. I’m American, I’ve tasted it, and gosh darn it, I do like it on a piece of toast with some butter. If you like salty, and you like toast, what’s the issue? Week 22: Tasty Yeast extract: Australian for ‘tasty.’

The Tzur Hadassah contrast.
I live in a beautiful nature park-slash-construction zone. Pretty sure that at any given time in the last year there are around a dozen construction sites within our town. The flagship of Tzur Hadassah construction would be the megatron community center/school district being built in the center, towards the valley. Har Kitron is good for a…

Fifty-Two Frames: New.
Who wants to get caught up in a fresh whirlpool of crushed chick peas? Week 21: New Let’s take a dip.
