Hi Boris .... This is an interesting photo for me, as I've never imagined Israel with much forest area, even though I can remember, as a child, contributing my pennies to "plant a tree in Israel." Of course, I don't really know if the money went towards planting trees or elsewhere, but I do recall that a lot of us here in the US sent a lot of dollars to our Israeli kith and kin.
Is this a naturally forested area, or has it been planted? It would be nice to see this, and other of your photos, larger. This is true for the photos of others as well. Sometimes these commercial sites have so much extraneous information on the page that the photographs seems almost incidental. It's a nice snap, nothing great, although it provides a nice "feel" for the area. Where exactly was this taken? Where does the dirt road lead? Is this a field ready for cultivation, or cleared for building? Shel > [Original Message] > From: Boris Liberman < > http://www.photoforum.ru/rate/photo.php?photo_id=204177
