Morning mist covers the Israeli-Syrian border near Majdal Shams in the Golan Heights
Morning mist covers the Israeli-Syrian border near the Druze village of Majdal Shams in the Golan Heights June 6, 2011. Israel remains on high alert a day after Palestinian demonstrators in Syria rushed to the frontier fence in what Israel called a challenge to its sovereignty. Israel captured the Golan Heights from Syria in the war and annexed the territory in 1981, a move not recognised internationally.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of the Israeli-Syrian border near Majdal Shams in the Golan Heights. The morning mist delicately blankets the landscape, creating an ethereal atmosphere that obscures the view and adds a touch of mystery to this natural phenomenon. As the sun begins to rise, its gentle rays pierce through the fog, casting a soft glow on everything it touches. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the political tensions that have long plagued this region. Israel remains on high alert following a recent challenge to its sovereignty by Palestinian demonstrators from Syria who rushed towards the frontier fence. This incident highlights the ongoing complexities surrounding this disputed territory. The photograph also showcases elements of daily life amidst such unrest. A car can be seen traversing along an indistinct road, symbolizing resilience and perseverance in navigating through uncertain times. The distant mountains stand tall and stoic, providing a picturesque backdrop against which these events unfold. Ronen Zvulun's creative use of perspective allows us to appreciate this scene from above, offering a unique vantage point that emphasizes both nature's grandeur and man-made boundaries. With no people visible in sight, we are left with only nature's presence and weather's whimsical dance with fog. Overall, this thought-provoking image encapsulates not only stunning visual aesthetics but also tells a story about politics, civil unrest, and our complex relationship with our environment.
