EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Amir Cohen, a group of surfers patiently await their turn to catch a wave in the Mediterranean Sea. The scene takes place amidst a rainstorm in Israel's southern city of Ashkelon on January 27,2012. Despite the rough sea and dangerous weather conditions, these adventurous individuals demonstrate their unwavering passion for surfing. The image showcases the power and beauty of nature as dark clouds loom overhead, creating an atmospheric backdrop against which the surfers' silhouettes stand out. Although their faces remain unrecognizable, their determination is palpable as they strategically position themselves on their boards, ready to ride the perfect wave. Cohen's creative use of composition allows us to appreciate both the vastness of the Mediterranean Sea and its potential dangers. The contrast between man and nature is strikingly evident here; while humans are mere specks in comparison to the immense body of water surrounding them, they possess an undeniable connection with it. This photograph serves as a reminder that even during inclement weather conditions, there are those who find solace and excitement in embracing Mother Nature's unpredictable elements. It captures a moment frozen in time – one that encapsulates both serenity and anticipation within Israel's coastal landscape.
