the ancient Napolean City of Acre

Acre (or Akko)was a strategic coastal link to the Levant. In crusader times it was known as St. John d'Acre after the Knights Hospitaller of St John order who had their headquarters there. Acre is the holiest city of the Bahá'í Faith

it has everything from an ancient harbour to local delicacies, 

old alleys and mosques and chilled cafes.

And of course, photo opportunities galore:

I worked with my 24-70mm Sigma Zoom 

and my wonderful 100mm Canon

which was fantastic with the food shots

all natural light of course

near dusk, on the corner of two streets, where flavours of all the word mix,
people on bikes, walking by, passing, eating
enjoying life, working hard
making the city.

children and their rooms and toys. two stories

two photographers tackle with the conditions of children around the world. 
where do they sleep ? 
what toys do they have ? 

Photographer James Mollison  photographed children in remote and close countries and tried to compare their sleeping area and the pre - conceptions we have over them.

Bilal, 6, Wadi Abu Hindi, The West Bank

Tzvika, 9, Beitar Illit, The West Bank

while Gabriele Galimberti showed children with their toys

what do these comparisons mean ? 

what is the use of such studies ? 

some are reach and some are poor

some have many some have none

but they all love 

to play.
