Rosh Hanikra- A story of the sea and the mountain

On the northern most beach of Israel, alongside the border crossing to Lebanon, lies a naturally shaped site dating back hundreds of thousands of years back.

“Rosh Hanikra”, freely translated to “head of the grottoes” is in my opinion a must visit for photographers staying or visiting in Israel. The natural process, described in the official site of Rosh Hanikra, resulted in a complex of under ground grottoes with internal halls and bays opening towards the see. The water in the calm sea of September and October are crystal clear and have a brilliant blue-turquoise color.

The combination of water, rock and the penetrating sunlight make a great mix to play with. Notice though, that without a tripod and a camera that enables to control exposure time (fully manual or shutter priority settings) good results will be much more of a challenge.
