Tel Gezer

Gezer (Hebrew: גזר‎, lit. Carrot) was a town in ancient Israel.

Scholars believe that Gezer is identical with Tel Gezer (Tell el-Jezer or Abu Shusheh), about midway on the route between Jerusalem and Jaffa. Gezer was located on the northern border of the Shephelah, approximately thirty kilometres west of Jerusalem. It was strategically situated at the junction of the International Coastal Highway and the highway connecting it with Jerusalem through the valley of Ajalon. The view from Gezer encompassed the whole Coastal Plain below it, making it a strategic military center. from Wikipedia

Classical composition and neat sepia treatment to match it. The burned-out summer has it's charms too.
