EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, the Iron Dome anti-missile system springs into action as rockets are launched from Gaza towards Israel. The intense moment is frozen in time, showcasing the sheer power and precision of this defensive mechanism. Taken with a long exposure, the image beautifully captures the night sky illuminated by streaks of light created by both the interception missiles and the rockets. From the city of Ashkelon in Israel, we witness an urban landscape juxtaposed against a backdrop of conflict. The buildings stand tall amidst an atmosphere charged with tension and uncertainty. This creative use of photography highlights not only the architectural beauty but also serves as a testament to resilience in times of armed conflict. The absence of people allows us to focus solely on these extraordinary events unfolding above our heads. The picturesque nature surrounding Ashkelon remains untouched by human presence, emphasizing how war disrupts not only daily life but also our environment. As we gaze at this remarkable image, we are reminded that even amid chaos and destruction, there is still room for hope and protection. The Iron Dome's ability to intercept incoming missiles offers solace to those living under its shielded skies. Amir Cohen's photograph encapsulates more than just a single moment; it encapsulates an ongoing struggle for peace within an ever-changing world.
