EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, the Dome of the Rock stands tall amidst a serene winter wonderland. Snow blankets the compound known to Muslims as al-Haram al-Sharif and to Jews as Temple Mount in Jerusalem's Old City. Taken on January 10,2013, during one of the worst snowstorms in two decades, this image captures both the beauty and resilience of this historic site. The golden-colored dome contrasts beautifully against the pure white landscape, creating a striking visual spectacle. The exterior of the Dome showcases intricate architectural details that have withstood centuries of history and faith. As clouds gracefully hover above, they add depth to an already mesmerizing cityscape. This photograph highlights not only religious significance but also cultural diversity. It symbolizes coexistence between Judaism and Islam within Jerusalem's ancient walls. The presence of multiple faiths is evident through various elements such as trees surrounding the compound—a reminder that nature too finds harmony amidst human beliefs. As snow covers every inch of this sacred space, it serves as a gentle reminder that even in times when public transport halts and schools close their doors due to inclement weather—faith remains unwavering. This picture encapsulates a moment frozen in time where religion transcends any temporary obstacles presented by Mother Nature. Ammar Awad's creative use of composition allows viewers to appreciate both the grandeur of architecture and tranquility brought by winter's touch. With no people present in this frame, one can focus solely on admiring how these elements
