Here is a slide show from our visit to various Fondas in Santiago with folkloric music.

Elqui Valley is a wine region centered on Elqui River in northern Chile.
The Elqui Valley wine region 400 km (250 mi) north of Santiago lies at the southern end of the Atacama Desert in the Coquimbo region. It is known for producing table grapes and other fruits, as well as pisco brandy, Chile’s most popular liquor. But it is also notable for being the most commercially viable wine-producing region of northern Chile. The region’s vineyards extend from the Pacific Ocean in the west to the Andes Mountains in the east, and rise to an altitude of 2,000 meters above sea level (6,500 feet). Wine production began in the Elqui Valley in the 1990s when Chilean wine producers began to look at potential viticulture sites outside the Chilean Central Valley. The region is characterized by a sunny, desert-like climate, less than 70 mm (2.8 in) of annual rainfall, dry rocky terrain, steep valleys and temperate hills cooled by strong winds from the Pacific Ocean and the Andes Mountains, producing excellent results for varietals like Syrah

Every Torah scroll in existence contains exactly the same text, written on parchment by scribes trained for years in the art of bringing the words of the teaching to light. Each scroll is sacred, none more so than those scrolls which come to us from the communities decimated by the Shoah, the Holocaust. These scrolls, which bore witness to some of the darkest hours of Jewish and human history, are preserved intact as a symbol of perseverance, hope, and the promise of renewal and continuity. For the Jewish people, a scroll with this history carries great significance.
In May 2011, B'nai Israel Synagogue-Dan Abraham Jewish Cultural Center of Rochester, MN became the caregiver congregation for one of those scrolls. This particular scroll was written about 350 years ago in Kolin, a small town in the present Czech Republic. It served generations of Jewish congregants, and miraculously survived the Holocaust even though its congregation did not.
Our community undertook the restoration of this Torah scroll. Each letter and each stitch was examined, revitalized, and restored by Rabbi Gedaliah Druin of Sofer. His old hands working in perfect concert with the antiquity of the text and the history of the parchment reflect the light that still shines through as scribe, word, and artifact become one.

Yellowstone is a constantly changing place. The New Highland Spring is a rather new feature in the park. It began its activity around 1950 while being a wooded and grassy hillside. The trees became engulfed by travertine. This picture shows some of those trees with background of calcium carbonite. A rather surreal view.
Meadow at Yellowstone National Park. Vast and beauty. Quietness, calm, and impressive. It is said that a picture is worth 1000 words. Well, to describe the beauty and tranquility of this meadow in Yellowstone National Park, you will need at least 1000 pictures. This is only my tip of the iceberg contribution. I visited the park last August (2016) during National Park Services 100th anniversary. No question the best present the US has given to the world!
Winter in Minnesota can be brutal and dangerous. Still, Mother Nature delivers it with class. This image shows what an ice storm can provide: Cold, dangerous roads... and amazing beauty!
Last August (2016) I had the fortune of visiting Yellowstone. Words will not suffice to describe the beauty and splendor of what nature has created. As I am working through the many pictures I took, I will be posting some, like the three including in this one. I hope you enjoy them, and help trigger a visit to the Park. It is really amazing!
Some rain fell on the Grand Teton National Park, helping fight the wild fires. The "fog" seen on the ground is actually smoke from those fires. Amazing spectacle at dawn.

The houses on this street are old and very modest. Still, they are home to their owners, and the TLC shows. Colorful painting, some embellishment, and as much as possible clean look is a reflection of calling these houses home. Picture taken in Olmue in the Central Valley in Chile. February 2016.
It is said that midday is the worst time for taking pictures outside. This pictures shows the exception. Taken on the beach in Viña del Mar, Chile, it was around midday in a very bright day in February 2016, in the middle of summer.
Bright and shinny sky, wave lines on sea, almost dark on land. A sunset that encompass almost everything on earth!
At times, a small corner of the world can have a great view. This sunset image was taken in my neighborhood, Cascades in Rochester, MN. The lake is a small artificial one, the sunset is natural and big. A beautiful surrounding for an evening walk around the lake, wild flowers next to it, and some geese swing in it. Just beautiful calm and serene.
The distorted image of a building on a square and very stable pattern seems to show reality and perception. The combination of both resembles life.
“A Street in Paris”. This photo is not what you would expect with such a tittle, but it shows quite a bit about the city. To start with, the lone leaf indicates we are in the Fall, the wet cobblestones not only indicate an old street, but are typical of Paris, where it rains more than in London. The light from the side suggests it is in the evening. But the most compelling story is the leaf, left by Mother Nature, and the cigarette butt left by human presence. Both are alone, wet, and mostly unseen by passersby.
Amazing how much an image from a little corner can show and suggest us!
Just at dawn in late February 2016, I went out in San Alfonso de Mar, Chile to shoot some pictures. The serenity and calm is a great time to start the day, and it didn't disappoint. The lines that separate the water in this pool, claimed to be the largest sea water one in the world, create an interesting composition while still maintain the sense of quietness. Just an amazing place and morning.

While walking on the streets of Algarrobo, one of the main resort towns on Chile’s central coast, saw this garage door smiling at me. Their is always a first time...
In the center of Santiago, La Vega Central market dates back over 100 years with its humble origins as a few produce stalls. Today, it sprawls over several city blocks with friendly vendors hawking the freshest seasonal produce from Chile’s central valley and far-flung latitudes. Pink, plump native sweet garlic; huge pumpkins chunked down with orange flesh for stews and tantalizing fruit. Exceptional smells and colors in this organized functioning chaos.
Sitting in the corner, this kangaroo at the Koala Park seemed to be absorbed in his own thoughts.
Koala Park Sanctuary in Sydney, Australia is a beautiful tourist retreat that allows up-front encounters with many native Australian animals. It was built in the 1920s and opened in October 1930 by the owner Noel Burnet. He established the sanctuary because he was concerned at the large number of koalas being killed for the fur trade, and hunting of the animal would ultimately lead to its extinction. He spent the remainder of his life dedicated to researching and preserving the animals habitat. Lately it has come in disrepute for some neglect of its animals.
Cajón del Maipo is a canyon located in the Andean southeastern portion of Santiago. It encompasses the upper Maipo River, where the river has entrenched itself in a narrow valley. At the end of Cajón de Maipo, on the Chile-Argentina border, about 90Km from Santiago and an altitude of 5856 meters (19,213 feet) is the San José Volcano it last erupted in 1960.,a magnificent landscape
less than two hours driving from the city!
Walking through downtown Washington DC in late Autumn came to Lafayette Square, just across the street from the White House. I was struck by the serenity of the place. It was a grey and cold day, so no many people were walking on the streets, but considering the prime location of the Square, the quite feeling was unexpected and special.
This would have been a miracle 75 years ago!!
In response to Christopher Ingrahm’s article ranking of US counties published in the Washington Post on August 2015, here is a link to views he apparently didn’t have the chance to see and appreciate. Olmstead County in SE Minnesota has nothing to be ashamed of, quite the contrary, it has its particular beauty when you open your eyes to see it.
Everywhere you go, there is beauty. Appreciate it and enjoy it, I do.
Late Autumn in South East Minnesota. The leaves are almost gone, the warm weather is gone, the beauty remains.
An article published in the Post Bulletin (Rochester local newspaper) entitled "Beauty is everywhere"
Comments?
The pictures in this blog are my response to the Washington Post beauty ranking of US counties of some weeks ago. South East Minnesota counties ranked very low in their list. Whoever did the ranking didn’t see the fields that surround Rochester the way I did.
Beauty is always around us, if we open our eyes and pay attention to what is in front of us!
These pictures were taken at the beginning of spring this year, snow is gone and colors start to reappear everywhere. Farmers plow, prepare and seed their fields. The feeling of live coming back cannot be more uplifting.
The Old City of Jerusalem, its Stones and its People
In Jerusalem's Old City. every stone has a history to tell. Each person that lives there or visits, walks the streets lined with those stones, creating hos own story. This exhibit takes you from the external stoned walls of the Old City through the narrow alleys where people from all backgrounds and religions dwell, to the Western Wall, a wall built not just of stones, but of spiritual attraction and symbolism.
While in a visit to Jerusalem, I set out thinking I would be photographing the narrow alleys, the walls and the stones of the Old City. It soon became clear that the story of the Old city, all its various stories, lived as much in the people as in the stones themselves. Anyone who has ever been to Jerusalem discovers that the city is peopled by many groups, each with its particular dress, living side by side, in a mix unparalleled in any other city. As the days progressed, I came to understand that while each stone has a story to tell, the story comes to life because of the people who make these streets their home, who make these stories part of their lives and who bring the meaning of the stones and streets themselves to life.
Just as my realization moved from the outer walls to the inner understanding of the vibrancy of our holy city, so too will this exhibit take you from the external walls of the city, to its narrow alleys, to its people, and end at the Western Wall where the stones and the people together create meaning of the site.
A dramatic scene of Badlands hills and the sky clouds. I leave it open to your interpretation. The Badlands is a very special and different place created by Mother Nature. Strongly suggest you visit if you can. Another very impressive aspect of this National Park is the accessibility to disabled people. Everywhere I was could be accessed with a wheelchair. Really impressive!.
The impressive combination of big rock formations and forest in the Black Hills National Forest of South Dakota is captured in this B&W picture. As if Mother Nature took a black pencil and draw it herself!
Badlands National Park is located in southwest South Dakota. It protects 379.306 square miles of sharply eroded buttes, pinnacles, and spires blended with the largest undisturbed mixed grass prairie in the United States.
I spent a couple of days capturing its distinctive beauty.
Spent a few days in the Black Hills National Forest in South Dakota. Impressive natural beauty!
Early Spring in the fields around Rochester, MN. Life starts to come back. Trees show first indication bloom is approaching. Farmers start cleaning their fields, plow and seed for the upcoming season. The beauty of the vast fields is there for us to appreciate and enjoy.
My new pho-book "The Fields of South Minnesota" is a window to this beauty. Even it repeats every year, it is still a wonder!
(Note: click on the book title to see a preview).
Spend a few days in Evanston, IL in mid June. I was disappointed that my free day was a rainy and cool one, but I have to admit that having the park all to myself ended up being a great advantage. The Quite and serenity of the scene caught my attention, something I wouldn't have been able to have in a sunny and warm day.
Early June in South East Minnesota. Fields of corn (maize) everywhere. The small plants create interesting compositions helped by the small hills and evening sun. Corn is one of the most important crops of the area. It is just beautiful!
Tel Aviv is a mix of old low-rise apartment buildings, renovated buildings with newer facades, and brand new luxury high rises, locally called towers. The contrasts are compelling and are evidence of the transformation the city is going through.
There are many sites to visit: small plazas, the Rabin square, picturesque streets, parks, cultural centers, a flea market, and the modern promenades and beaches -- all illustrating the focus on urban development that is the core of the present Tel Aviv.
It is the people of Tel Aviv, though, who bring these buildings and sites to life. They enjoy the parks and plazas, walk the streets, wait for a bus, sit in a café, stare at the ocean waves, or just take the dog for a walk.
The many human faces of Tel Aviv, overlaid on the many architectural faces, are what makes it such a vibrant place.
