EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Amir Cohen, the Iron Dome anti-missile system springs into action as rockets are launched from Gaza towards Israel. The image showcases a powerful display of defense and resilience in the face of danger. The night sky serves as the backdrop for this intense moment, with an array of clouds creating a dramatic atmosphere. Through creative use of long exposure, Cohen skillfully captures the trail left behind by the interceptor missile as it races through the air to intercept its target. The photograph highlights both the destructive potential and life-saving capabilities of modern military technology. With no people present in the frame, attention is drawn solely to the environment and nature surrounding this act of violence. The sheer power unleashed during armed conflicts is evident in every pixel, reminding us of both human ingenuity and our capacity for destruction. This thought-provoking image offers a glimpse into a world where dangerous situations unfold against an otherwise serene backdrop. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos, beauty can be found in unexpected places. Cohen's expertly composed photograph encapsulates not only an attack but also echoes themes such as resilience, protection, and hope for peace in troubled times.
