Hi everyone,
two shots I took today - showing the Monastery of the Silent Monks, in Latrun, which is on the highway between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

The Silent Monks belong to the Trappist order, otherwise known as the Cistercian Order of the Strict Observance (the Cistercian Order is part of the Catholic Church).
They don't actually take a vow of silence, but they speak as little as they can and avoid speaking of trivial matters.

Hello and good day. Thank you for sharing this beautiful photos you have captured from the Monastery of the Silent Monks, Latrun, Israel. Great work and two thumbs up.

Great photo's, nicely done!

From the name of the order it can be seen they are ultra-strict observers. So I can only assume it's a religious matter, they view it as a waste of breath and time.

And thanks everyone for your feedback.

Beautiful capture nice work.

Thanks everyone.
One thing disturbs me though.
Check out the periodic noise in the reddish areas, like the roof and the front staircase.
Any idea why that happens? Is there a setting I may have set wrong in the camera?

Nicely done = thanks again for sharing!

Now that you mention it, I see some noise on the green object as well on the lower right hand side.  It's still a great picture and thanks for the history!
