I came across the work of Chanan Getraide who takes dramatic photos of Israel. Some are a little too strong for my taste but when his work hits the spot, it hits the spot!

And the photos are for sale (image 1, image 2)!
The election is about to happen in the US and soon enough in Israel.
The economic forecasts stink.
All those smart men in DC managed to give away $250 billion dollars to banks that won’t lend it, thereby deepening the economic crisis they have given us. This, after receiving our hard-earned tax money to bail out their asses because they screwed up and did the opposite of what they were supposed to do as bankers. Brilliant!
But it’s shabbat. So, shabbat shalom!

The photos have some Dalí to them; spooky, intriguing, apocalyptic. Thanks for sharing, Middle!
Ironically enough, there are banks over here that downright refuse borrowing from the 500 billion Euro bailout fund Germany’s come up with – out of pride even though it means risking their customers’ savings.
