  1. Spectacular! Your photos show me a side of Israel that I never realized existed! There are sooo many gorgeous plants and flowers where you live! Posted 5 years ago
    1. thank you :-)
      I think most places have wonderful things to see, you just need to look for them... Israel is highly urbanized, and this was the first time I've seen such a large patch of Ophrys lutea :-)

      1. I completely agree - you can find some nice, natural element anywhere...it might not be easy, but it's always possible. Posted 5 years ago
