Abstract
Description
Dr. Beth Sheppard, the photographer for this collection, is pictured here on the lower terrace of Herod the Great's palace to provide a sense of sale for the hight of the columns in the courtyard. It is important for visitors to note that the desert sun can be brutal. Sun protection and hydration are vital.
