Fish market at Akko
The old city of Akko (Acre) is located on the northern shores of Israel. This walled city is fascinating - a large shuk (market), huge mosque, Ottoman citadel, Templar tunnels and a turbulent history. Nothing better than having a shwarma while sipping mint tea at a street cafe and watching the world pass by...

Priyank, reflection
Ramble: Unlike the picture seen to your right, I seldom take my own pictures for the simple reason that I like to capture only the beautiful ones. The guy in adjoining picture is my reflection on a mirror that was full of some information. I started editing it out, but got bored, and left that ‘e’ alone.

Equipment: Canon PowerShot A520.
Why this camera?
The most important reason is that it has manual functions. The other reason is that it runs on AA batteries, which are not only ubiquitous, but also pretty cheap. Helped me a lot during my few travel spells where I was deprived of access to electricity ;) Thirdly, the camera is compact enough to fit into my jeans front pocket. And finally, I somehow like the Canon brand.

I should stop writing now and let you enjoy(?) the pictures. Feel free to comment – remember, the brutal, the better.

PS: I am in the process of adding pictures. Finally I got a big server and a good plugin to work with.
