[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Rehovot was once called "the city of red sands". Red sands are pretty good for growing citrus (so they say, I wouldn't know), Oranges, mostly. So for many years this city was surrounded with orchards. Nowdays there are almost no orchards left...
That day I went with a friend for a walk, for an important talk. Just outside the city, we went through the fields and the remaining orchards for a couple of hours. It was getting late. We saw a small hill and went towards it, while dark-Grey clouds were gathering above us. When we finally got there, it was quite a sight: a bare tree, standing over those tiny yellow 'wintery' flowers.
I took many pictures that day, this was one of my favorite moments.

Interesting place , and nice colors .
It has something bizarre , due to the big contrast between the dead upper portion and the colorful lower portion.

A fine and well made nature detail Tom. Interesting with the misty background and fine details included by the foreground and the trees. Nice one
