His Wife, The Painter

Just to clear things up immediately: the woman on this photo is not not my wife. She’s some random woman I met while I was on a stroll downtown.

If you're a celiac I can recommend Black Bar & Burger. It's a chain of restaurants spread across Israel and it's possible to get a decent gluten free hamburger there.

I’m thinking about buying a new DSLR camera. Most likely I’ll stick to Canon.
Any tips from the readers? EOS 5D? 600D? 60D?
Which camera do you prefer/recommend and why?

An old, slightly out of tune piano, was left on the street and some random guy that was passing by sat down and played on it. All this led to another random guy (me) taking a photo as he was passing by.

I have no idea how the story continued…

I wanted to share this photo from Jerusalem that was shot last summer. This a typical case of “shooting from the hip”.Jerusalem Street Photography by CardinalGuzman.wordpress.com

Shooting from the hip means taking a risk, as it is unpredictable, yet it can yield good results and I’m quite pleased with this particular photo.
