[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The photo was taken during our trip to Nahal Me'arot Nature Reserve
on the Mount Carmel

Mount Carmel is a coastal mountain range in Israel overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. Its name is derived from the Hebrew "Karem El" which means 'vineyards of God'. In ancient times it was covered by vineyards and was at all times famous for its fertility.

Mount Carmel is 16 miles long by 4-5 miles wide and 1,800 feet high. The city of Haifa is partially on Mount Carmel, and so are a few smaller towns such as Nesher, Tirat Hakarmel, Yokneam and Zikhron Ya'aqov. The city of Acre (also known as Akko) is more or less across the bay on the north side.

peaceful and colorful. Very nice picture with the bright colored branches in the foreground Alex. The scenery in the background looks beautiful. Nice work :-)
