EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness a worker delicately removing notes from the cracks of the Western Wall in Jerusalem's Old City. This iconic site holds immense significance for Judaism as it is considered their holiest prayer location. The image was captured on August 25,2013, just before Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. The worker's actions are part of a cleaning ritual to make room for more paper notes that Jews believe are messages to God. With utmost care and respect, he ensures that every note is gently extracted from the crevices of this ancient wall. The composition of the photograph focuses on an elderly man's hand reaching into one such crack. Although his face remains unrecognizable, his devotion and dedication shine through as he performs this sacred task. This close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate details: weathered stones forming the Western Wall, crumpled pieces of paper symbolizing prayers and hopes entrusted to God by countless individuals over generations. The image also captures elements of Israel's rich cultural heritage with its traditional way of life depicted through religious ceremonies like these. It serves as a reminder that despite modern advancements, traditions rooted in faith continue to thrive. Overall, Baz Ratner has skillfully portrayed both the spiritual essence and human connection present at this revered site through his creative use of photography.
