This girl sent me a message during the summer :
"Hey Gonzale,
I've been following your Flickr page for many months now,
and I just wanted to let you know that other then enjoying your photos from an aesthetic point of view,
I also really appreciate them as an Israeli citizen.
I am 23 and live in the center of Israel, and although geographically I may live close to the places you shoot,
I have absolutely no idea about the daily life in places like Beirut and Damascus.
Through your photos I am able to see these day to day scenes which looks almost identical to the ones in my home land,
and it really strikes a chord in me. Your Arab friends look like my Israeli ones, the Beirut hang-outs look
exactly like the ones in Tel-Aviv...
I appreciate your work so much, and I just want to thank you for allowing me to have this sneak glimp
of a reality so close but so far, and I'm sure that if more people from both sides of the boarder would
see them they would feel much less eager to continue the current estranged situation.
Hope to see you one day in Tel-Aviv or Jerusalem,
Adi Marnin."
This is why i'm taking photos.
Here's her page, she's a good photographer
[link]These days i'm writing down the conversations i've been recording since i got here.
In a month, i think i'll have translated them to english and i'll share them.
Lebanon is such a complex country and i really want to speak about it.
Feel free to check the blog now and then
[link]I only post photos for now, but the series will be a mixture of text and photos.
Cheers
