Picture of the Week XXIX
This week we head down to the old, more rundown area of south Tel Aviv, into Levinsky Street. Here you can probably experience your first stab of culture shock in Israel, as you won’t find the pretty side of Tel Aviv down this way. The people here work hard, live hard and yes, shop for lingerie extraordinarily hard (see the pic below). I’ve rented places to live down this way; it’s cheap and definitely no-thrills. But there are some little gems to be found, you’ve just got to look for them.
The pic was taken by schnapper_j, a guy from Kfar Saba, just outside of Tel Aviv. He’s got some nice shots of Tel Aviv in his collection, definitely worth a browse. I love this pic and those faces on those mannequins, though there’s something scarily Joker-ish about them…
