The photo of our life

In 1963 René Burri met with Che Guevara in order to take some photos of him.
one of the photos René took went down in history as the most famous photo of Che. this is how we all know and remember Che Guevara, in his uniform, sitting at his office in Havana, smoking a cuban cigar.


when we think about famous people, we usually have a certain image of them recorded in our minds, but not only the famous have such a photo. each one of us have such photo that was taken in some stage in his life that becomes dear and special, a favorite. sometimes we wouldn't recognize ourself in it. an unusual angle or the expression on the face, frozen in a manner surprising even to us.


some updates:

a couple of photos i took a couple of years ago, featuring hand forged door handles were published in the last issue of the Hepaistos International Jahr Buch - a publication dedicated to blacksmiths around the world. the photos were both taken at a get together orgnized by a blacksmith here in Israel in order to make a door handle for his daughters new house.

both featured door handles by Amit Har-lev.

The UNESCO Poster

Hi everyone,
Today, i wanted to share with you the poster that was designed to promote an UNESCO conference about Deserts and Desertification that will take place here in Israel next November, featuring a photo of mine that was taken about 35 kms. from home.
These trees in the photo are victims of the five years long drought the country is experiencing as a cause of the global ambiental change that is felt all around the globe. the 2008 rain season summed up to 3 mm. of rain only.
As you all might have noticed, i am very sensitive to the environmental issues and i take pride in being able to do my share for such a cause.
I truely believe that awareness is a key component in controling global warming and that the small actions we can all undertake as individuals, to not only use and abuse our home, but also give something in return, can make a difference.
May conferences such as this one bring us a step forward towards a better tomorrow.
all the best, Guy.

Working from home - a reality !

Hi again !
Today i made my first sale over the Internet. it is a big day for me.
it actually means i am on the way to cracking the secrets for living the life i always wanted for myself. it means i could work from anywhere really. all it takes is an Internet connection.
i could live in Spain, Iceland, New Zealand, Switzerland... anywhere !
Just like everybody else, i was sceptic before i started. there are many scams around and it just sounds to good to be true (and possible).
i have been learning the subject for about a month now but i only started a week ago, only one week. it is easy ! it takes some nerves and some thinking, but anyone can do it.
if anyone wants to hear more about it, please feel free to write me to my Email, i would love to share what i've learned. GuySadan@yahoo.com.au
