For some time now I’ve been wanting to drive to a magnificent view point located on Mt. Saul (Israel) but always had excuses no to. Whether it’s the absent of time or the long time it takes to get there, I’ve missed a lot of opportunities.
The view for Mt. Saul is facing east, so if you’re planning on shooting the sunrise, that’s an excellent spot. Just beneath it lies a vast and beautiful valley near the city of Beit-She’an.
I had to drive about 100 km and wake 3 hours before the sunrise itself to position myself just in time for a several minutes to take the shots that I needed. But that’s landscape photography, I guess.

While I was up there, I’ve made a short clip (in Hebrew) about my photo process. You’re invited to watch and follow me on YouTube for more videos.
