Okay, so this is the Sherover Theatre. It is really a sight to see close up. I actually have a theory, and this is unconfirmed, that the building was intended to look like Noah' Ark. The building has a distinctively boat-ish feel to it, and round the back there is a statue of a dove with an olive branch in its beak.

The adventure began while I was photographing the theatre a few months ago - in preparation for this blog, when a security guard from the neighboring President's Residence came out and wanted to give me a piece of his mind. (We both agreed that if he did that, he wouldn't have enough for himself, so... I said thanks for your time, and he thanked me for mine...and I disappeared down the alley.)

Then at the begining of the week my dear friend Sally asked me to photo the inside of the theatre, and low and behold, another security guard appeared. He told me that if I got caught by the theatre management - i'd be sued - Hm!

So I said thanks for your time, and he wasted more of mine...now what should I do about poor Sally?

Ah yes you have to be so careful about filming indoors.

I have this problem too, there are so many places where you cant really take pictures! By the way, and I know this is late, but congrats on your wedding :)

Daniel, Thank you so much for bringing these pictures to people like me who cannot afford to make the trip to Israel. This country is close to my heart, and I am interested in the people and the culture. Thank you again, and God Bless you.
