The Holiday of the Holidays 2019 – Wadi Nisnas with Ricoh GRii

 
December quietly came and with it the winter holidays, and today my post is about one of these winter holidays which is usually celebrated only in Haifa – the city in the northern part of Israel. In one of my old posts i wrote about and published a series of images about my visit there during the days of this celebration.

This year the weather surprised us with the blue clear sky, clean and not cold air and not too busy traffic on the fast road on our way to Haifa. (well the last one is not about wether but more about our social community that is in love to drive at weekends all together in the same direction). The way to Haifa was 1+ average hour-long, but at evening conversely – 2 and half hours long like life way home. One of my longest amounts of time to drive 100km ever.

The “Holiday of The Holidays combines the celebration of three religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam and celebrate the possibility and the values of coexistence. It was launched in 1993 as a joint venture of the Municipality of Haifa and Beit Hagefen.

For this post and planned two additional posts I used my pocket Ricoh GRii camera. You will see my regular Black and White stuff today, one post full of colorful images and additional post with the images I took with flash. Everything is already edited and ready to be published, but I have too many to show, so my decision was to split up the series to a few posts. Enjoy!
