Bar Mitzvah reading torah
A 13-year-old boy reads from a Torah parchment scroll at the rehearsal for his bar mitzvah ceremony. His grandmother's hand is on one side of the scroll, and his grandfather's is on the other, representing the passing on of Jewish tradition from generation to generation. This photo shows his reading of a passage from the Torah called Kedoshim, or "Holiness."
I have 243 "keepers" from the three days of this boy's bar mitzvah, but I won't be sharing most of them on Flickr. I'm sharing this one on Flickr because it doesn't show anyone's face and because it's one of my favorites.
Some of my Flickr friends might be wondering why I haven't posted many photos lately. In addition to photographing a bar mitzvah three days last weekend, I have been translating Richard III into ASL with an interpreting partner and rehearsing our interpretation for the ASL interpreted performance. I have also been busy with preparing ASL interpreting workshops for a region and a national conference in June.
