JULY PLAY - TELL YOUR STORY

To reach the challenge, click on the banner

From the very beginning, 
when I saw the colors of the challenge

 and the inspirational Creations 
I knew that my story must be about the sea

Inspired by Sharon's creation,
 I really liked the idea of using two pictures

 the same picture in two different sizes

This particular picture of this challenge

 I brought from a Collection of folder's  photographs of mine 

.Picture that I myself have taken in the past

You may not know that I have also photographed
 for my pleasure

In the picture is the most beautiful beach in Israel,
 Habonim Beach

 which is right in front of my house

 and one of my great loves is to photograph sunsets
 and especially at  the sea

Of course, here in Israel in the Mediterranean region
 The sunset is always at sea

That picture is Actually from five years ago

These days, residents of the area, including myself,
oppose the construction of a gas rig in the area
 of the nearby beach ,for fear of air and sea pollution

 I used real shells, but the ones I bought

in our area we are not allowed to collect seashell

 in order to preserve the landscape 

it's like protected flowers

I used different materials,
 there is a picture of the most of them

I thought I should leave the flow in one direction

The story behind this piece

 As the story behind this beautiful beach 

 Which for me is a Getaway Place

Even though it belongs to many people

...Or actually does not belong to anyone

Every time I go to the sea

I feel that the sea is only mine

And is meant & especially created for me

I tried in this creation to pass on to you

The tranquility and calmness

 of the colors of the sunset in the sea

The sound of soft waves

  And the peace of mind that all this landscape creates Inside me

Hope the work meets the rules of the challenge

I hope you'll like it

And it moved you

Thank you for visiting my blog
