How Do We Fit 4,000 Rabbis in One Photo?
One of the main highlights of the Kinus Hashluchim takes place on Sunday morning, when thousands of Shluchim pack onto bleachers and chairs in front of 770 for the annual group portrait. How do the photographers fit so many people into one picture? With a lot of planning!
On Wednesday night Rabbi Lipa Brennan was spotted with photographers Donal Holway and Chaim Perl, along with Reb Efrayim Borenstien – who is providing the bleachers, in front of 770. With a copy of last year’s group photo in their hands, they plotted how they would successfully squeeze the thousands of Shluchim into a group picture once again this year.
Holway, who has been taking the official group photo for quite a number of years, is lending his experience and expertise to train in and groom Perl so that he may take his place in the future as the official photographer for the Kinus Hashluchim group photo.

piratical
ask 4000 rabbis to stay still for 20min and that pic looks really sharp too
Close off Eastern Parkway
and have a bunch of shluchim sit on chairs on Eastern Parkway
They should also
take one picture of all 4000 shluchim
Then they should take some pictures of smaller groups of Shluchim
For Example
——————
1 picture of all Shluchim in North America
1 Picture of all Shluchim in South America
1 Picture of all Shluchim from Israel
1 Picture of all Shluchim from Europe
1 Picture of all Shluchuim from Russia
etc
2 cents
all photographers in CH who charge hundreds per hour because they think they are so professional should come to 770 and take the photo and we will see how it comes out
Go Chaim Perl!
so happy & excited for my brother-in-law for such a gr-8 opportunity :)
