This week’s photograph was taken by Dima Vazinovichi, from Flash90, at a street party in Tel Aviv.

It used to be a one day affair, but Purim is quickly growing into a several-day extravaganza of dressing up.

Whatever your age in Israel, the holiday is about having fun and adults are just as likely to spend weeks choosing the perfect costume as the kids are.

If you’ve got a photograph you’d like to feature on ISRAEL21c please send it in high resolution to info@israel21c.org. Every week we will choose the best one to feature on our pages.
