 during the lead up to the miracle of the Holy Fire in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem on 23 April 2011, the day before Easter. Church officials and the Greek patriarch of Jerusalem circle Christ\'s Tomb three times before the Patriarch enters the tomb with no materials to produce fire, and the \'miracle\' occurs. The fire comes forth from a hole in the Tomb of Christ and quickly spreads among the faithful in the church and then outside through Jerusalem and even to foreign countries. The miracle is recorded as happening each year since 1106 and is considered by believers to be the flame of the Resurrection power, as well as the fire of the Burning Bush of Mount Sinai.<br />\r\n++++++++<br />\r\nAnd taken very seriously by all the Orthodox Christian faiths.',700,700);)

The fire starts at 2 PM. In one spot for 4 hours. Action and pix take about 10 minutes. <br />\r\n',700,700);)

 inside the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem on 21 April 2011. The church, one of the oldest in the world, is the traditionally accepted site as they place where Jesus Christ was crucified, buried and resurrected. The large stone is supposed to be where Jesus was taken down from the cross and his body washed and prepared for burial. A mosaic (R) partially seen, depicts the scenes of the Jesus death.<br />\r\n+++++++<br />\r\nThis is a 8 seconds exposure at F.22 on a 14mm lens, at 160 ASA. It is shot on a Canon 5D Mark II camera, so it is full frame, and cropped just a bit, as I had a sliver of marble at the bottom that the mini-tripod was standing on. enough technical data for the next 300 photos. I don;t think I\'ve ever supplied technical data on a shot before since this blog began. Someone correct me if I am wrong.',700,700);)

 in the Holy Prison inside the church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem on 19 April 2011 during Holy Week as thousands of pilgrims and faithful visit the holy site. Franciscans believe this is the site where Christ was held before his crucifixion on Good Friday, as other Christian denominations believe the prison was at various Stations of the Cross on the Via Dolorosa.',700,700);)

 who chairs the weekly cabinet meeting in his Jerusalem offices as an aid signals to journalists it is time to leave the room on 10 April 2011. Both Israel and the Hamas organization in the Gaza Strip have expressed a willingness to stop cross-border violence that has killed some 19 Palestinians and saw over 100 missiles and rockets fired into southern Israel in the past days, but already on Sunday several missiles have been fired into southern Israel.<br />\r\n++++++++++<br />\r\nThis is how we get kicked out from the weekly cabinet meeting. The five "wire services" - epa, Reuters, AP, AFP and Getty rotate to cover the cabinet meeting on Sunday morning and put out the pictures as Pool for all the others. We get a minute or two, plus the ministers walking in. ',700,700);)

, or the Temple Mount, with part of the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem\'s Old City seen behind, on 06 April 2011. In Tel Aviv today a group of Israelis presented what they call the \'Israeli Peace Initiative\' aimed at restarting the stalled peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians. The manifest, which is only two pages long, calls for a two-state solution based on the 1967 borders, with a Palestinian state covering most of the West Bank with east Jerusalem as its capital.',700,700);)

At least 25 people were injured in the blast that police say was an explosive device placed next to a pole and not on the bus itself. One 60-year-old woman has died from her injuries.<br />\r\n+++++++++++<br />\r\nThe first bombing in Jerusalem in 4 years. A very crowded bus stop area on any given day. Probably a sophisticated bomb left in a backpack. Someone has spotted it as a "suspicious" parcel, something that happens daily here, but it exploded before sappers could be called or arrive. Things have been heating up in the past couple days with almost 20 rockets and mortars being fired today from Gaza into southern Israel - as far away as Beersheba.',700,700);)
