Jerusalem At Night (original photo)

Been all kinds of busy with work and life, an' such the last few weeks, so blogging's suffered a hit. Anyway...

As Jews worldwide enter the month of Elul, preceding the Rosh Hashanah New Year, Yom Kippur, and Succot. From Aish.com:
Everything is different when the Jewish month of Elul arrives. It, too, is 30 days before the Big Day, which in this case is Rosh Hashana. It is not a time in which we strive to find some sort of balance between shopping and dropping. It is a time of love, yearning, reconciliation, forgiveness, and return.
I sure get the yearning and return thing:

I shot this at about 03:00, soon before I came to the States. It's a view of the Malha Mall area of Jerusalem, from the heights of Gilo, cupping the city from the south. More photo-techie talk about getting the shot is here.

And yes, while I have posted it before, this image means a lot to me for many reasons that I won't go into here, although veteran readers of this blog will (hopefully) understand.

Check back soon for more.
