EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Amir Cohen, smoke billows up from the Gaza Strip following an Israeli strike. Taken from the Israeli side of the border on November 30,2017, the photograph showcases a scene that is both haunting and thought-provoking. The composition of the photo is strikingly creative, with a distant silhouette of an unrecognizable bird soaring through the air against a backdrop of rising smoke. The use of depth of field adds to its artistic appeal as it blurs out parts of nature and people in the background, focusing solely on capturing this momentous event. As day transitions into dusk, a mesmerizing sunset casts long shadows over the landscape. The juxtaposition between light and dark further emphasizes the gravity and tension surrounding this conflict-ridden region. Amidst all these elements lies an underlying message about our environment and wildlife. The presence of animals in such chaotic situations serves as a reminder that they too are affected by human conflicts. It prompts us to reflect upon how our actions impact not only ourselves but also innocent creatures who share this planet with us. This photograph encapsulates more than just smoke rising; it captures emotions, raises questions about humanity's role in global affairs, and highlights how even amidst chaos, nature continues to exist silently yet powerfully.
