For my 100 City Project, I didn’t get quite as long in Jerusalem as normal, only 5 days instead of a full week, but I explored it inside and out as much as I could. While I enjoyed photographing the crowded quarters inside the famous Old City’s walls, the rest of Jerusalem, especially Mea Shearim, was just as enjoyable for me. Jerusalem is one unique city with a very interesting religious atmosphere. After spending a week in Tel Aviv, only a short drive away, it felt worlds apart.
So here’s 33 photos that I was able to capture during my time in Jerusalem…
After exploring and photographing Tel Aviv, Israel, next up was a short bus ride to the holy capital of Jerusalem for City #41 during my 100 City Project.
It doesn’t get more famous than Jerusalem. This holy city brings visitors and pilgrimages from all over the world. In the Old City, you have its quarters devoted to the Jewish, Christian and Muslim religions, with so much history it almost doesn’t seem real. But the city doesn’t end there, with plenty more to explore and see outside the walls. Jerusalem is a full experience and truly a city unlike any other.
So here are my first impressions of Jerusalem, from my personal Street Photographer perspective…
After Odessa, came City #40 Tel Aviv, Israel during my 100 Cities Project. It was my first time in the country, but for this city I was fortunate to have friend and local photographer Gabi ben Avraham there to help welcome me and show me around. This vibrant cosmopolitan city on the sea is so full of life that it feels much bigger than it actually is. Its compact and densely filled variety of interest and influences make it a perfect city for walking with your camera too. And best of all, the sun loves to stay out and keep the city and beaches alive for street photography.

After spending some time in Odessa, Ukraine, I took a quick flight to Tel Aviv, Israel for City #40 during my 100 City Project.
Tel Aviv is Israel’s modern cosmopolitan city on the sea. Lined with beaches full of life, packed with a vibrant urban center and topped off with the historic port of Jaffa, there’s a lot going on here for a city well under a million people. Life is lived under the sun, but doesn’t stop at sunset in Tel Aviv, making it a city much different from the rest of the country. It’s trendy and chic, but still possessing a mix of the past and future, with a vibrant multicultural feel throughout the city. It’s a compact, intimate city making it great for walking and exploring with your camera too.
