JPiX Jewish Photo Blogger Carnival 2014

Welcome to JPiX, the Jewish Photo Blogger Carnival, winter 2014 edition. Hope you will enjoy the tour of Jewish-inspired photos from around the world. Today we are visiting Israel, Crimea, California and Highland Park, New Jersey. Featured are a funeral and a wedding; sushi and bread; snow, sunsets and koi. I like to start with Batya, because if it weren’t for her, this carnival would not exist. If you like an image, please visit the post and leave a comment for the photographer. Comments welcome on this post as well, of course.

If you want to submit to a future edition of JPiX Jewish Photo Blogger Carnival, the form is on the JPiX page. The next edition will probably be in June or July 2014. If anyone would like to volunteer to host (a brave proposition because you need to be good with a photo editor), you can let me know by comment or by the JPiX form.

Adar Blog Carnivals

Adar is the Jewish month that contains Purim, a fun holiday with costumes, hamantaschen, and reading of the Book of Esther. The Adar blog carnivals are a good way to learn about Purim (and so much more).

Thank you so much to Phyllis aka Imabima who is hosting Haveil Havelim and gave top billing to JPiX. Learn more about JPiX and submit your own relevant photos or artwork on the JPiX page. The next JPiX will be hosted by Ilana-Davita on March 12.

Thank you to Yosefa for hosting the Adar Kosher Cooking Carnival. Visit the KCC post for delicious recipes and more.

Watercolor on the right is a detail from a painting I did in preparation for the Shabbat painting on this post. I love painting wine glasses.
