EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Ammar Awad, a man stands in silhouette against the backdrop of the iconic Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem's Old City. The man is seen blowing a Shofar, a ram horn traditionally used in Jewish religious ceremonies. As he exhales into the ancient instrument, his body remains unrecognizable but his faith and devotion are palpable. The image beautifully captures the intersection of religion, architecture, and urban life. The towering Dome of the Rock looms majestically behind him, symbolizing both spiritual significance and historical grandeur. Its golden dome glistens under an expansive sky as if embracing centuries-old stories whispered within its walls. The photographer skillfully plays with light and shadow to create an ethereal effect. The man's silhouette emerges from darkness while delicate rays illuminate his figure against the architectural marvel that dominates Jerusalem's skyline. This photograph not only highlights religious rituals but also serves as a reminder of unity amidst diversity. It showcases how different faiths coexist harmoniously within this sacred cityscape where Islam and Judaism intertwine on Temple Mount or Noble Sanctuary. Ammar Awad has masterfully captured a moment frozen in time - one that encapsulates spirituality, history, and human connection through artistry lensed against an ancient backdrop bathed in natural light.
