January Squares: Jerusalem Twilight

For Becky’s January Squares with the topic _____light, this is a sequence of three photos taken from a lookout (Mt. Scopus, I think) when we first arrived in Jerusalem. The sun was setting, below the horizon, so these are views of Jerusalem at twilight.

The Golden Dome on Temple Mount takes center stage in this twilight photo – as other buildings of the old city fade, its colors remain clearly visible.

A minute or so later, I zoomed in on the glowing clouds of the sunset.

Temple Mount dominates the Old City again, now with surrounding street lights glowing and lights on in surrounding buildings.
