The mystique of Jerusalem and especially the architecture in the old city was one mile from my home.
Brought me to the world of Photography.
I served in the Israeli Navy in the most amazing places on Earth, where the sun is red, and orange-blue is the ocean color.
The Sinai desert and the ocean moved me to be a professional photographer when every picture cannot reflect reality.
After completing my service in the Navy, I opened my first studio and began photographing the old city of Jerusalem and the nature that surrounds Jerusalem. From wadding and modeling pictures that were my income, I discovered that Israel has one of the most significant avian migrations globally, and Eilat became a hot spot for me.
I split my time from Studio to Birds. My goal was to publish the Book "Dessert Birds Of Israel."
While on my many drives from the North of Israel to Eliot, we discovered many new species in Israel.
