We're in the middle of a huge dust storm here in Israel (thank you so much Egypt for sending us all of this miserable dust...) and everything is shrouded in a veil of what looks like dirty fog. Not very conducive to all the wildflower photography I was planning for this week (we're in peak season here, and this freaking dust is NOT making me happy!) so I figured I'd share the little bit of color I did manage to capture before the dust came and washed it all out.
Nectarine blossoms on a friend's tree in honor of the Jewish holiday of Tu B'Shvat - New Year for the Trees - which is being celebrated today.

Oi, the dust is so thick that my view of Jerusalem on the hill has disappeared from view. I've been coughing my way through a bad cold for three weeks and today's dust is irritating.
Your blossoms give some happiness.
Oh, beautiful! Good thing you had a chance to take this in time :)
Beautiful blossoms. Come and stop over at my blog where I posted peach blossoms. Great minds think alike.

It's always hard to imagine flowers blooming while on this side of the sea, we are so cold!
Stunning.

This picture is absolutely stunning. I LOVE the turquoise sky peeking through. Truly, I think my all time favorite of your shots! Hope the dust storm subsides soon!
I love the colors. I'm slowly trying to decorate my apartment since I still live like I'm in college. This print would look so lovely on a wall. :)

Lovely photograph despite the dust storm. The colors remind me of those used in 18th-century Chinese paintings & porcelain. Thanks for sharing this!
