well, we all knowe that this categoty of "daily life" in israel looks definitely different to what we see in the rest of the world (or at least - in majority of the countries)...and i appreciate you decided to post this type of "action" photo...

Good shot behind the scene Daniel, knowing the use of this robot this is a relaxant view, a lot of good details to watch in this image, from the operator to the man, behind the robot, that do something without attention to what happens on the street, well done, interesting and useful post.
Ciao

Hi Daniel,

A good POV of the policemen and of the yellow robot, the photo has a good composition, sharpness and nice colors. Have a nice day.

Ah, the famous wheelbarrow. I don't know if you knew, but it was originally a British invention born out of the Army's experience in Northern Ireland. I imagine they get a lot of use in Israel these days.
It's an interesting shot, especially as we can see the operator at work inside the vehicle, but the framing leaves a bit to be desired in my opinion. I just think that there is too much road, with the van too high up in the frame. I'd have preferred some space above the van, and it would also have worked better if the front of the van had been visible. either that, or go right in close, framing tight from the operator to the back of the wheelbarrow. At the moment it's a bit in-between.
Still, as I said, it's an interesting image that shows us a daily reality of life in Israel.

Cheers,
Ben

hi daniel,
mixed feelings is what ... i feel seing this - even though without your note i might imagine it's some tiny machinery used in construction or something.

i have friends in israel and i somehow got to understand (after being properly explained of course) that scenes like this one are a part of daily life.

... still, i wish they weren't part of anybody's daily life, but as Gerrit wrote: part of a museum scenery; even though i believe you did well posting it.

thanks for sharing and have a peaceful day,
dora

Hi Daniel,
Quite interesting scene, showing action without casualties. The news of course tell only the less unfortunate half. Special looking gadget, and it's good to see the operator too. I agree with Ben, framing is tight on the upper edge.

daniel,
a good capture of a daily life moment on your part of the world(much mellower than other daily life shots we see on tv). concentration of the policemen and the two gentlemen sitting on the bg seemingly oblivious is a good contrast. well done.
