    Splash Battle. Youngsters having fun on a refreshing shady riverwalk on the Hermon Stream in Banias Natural Reserve. When the temperature is close to 40°C, even a small stream is a corner of paradise we must preserve, as water is the basic element of life and allows to regenerate energy from deep inside our soul. by: warzone Views[210] Patrol Unit. An emotional reaction of a lonely biker, staring at the 40km long Makhtesh Ramon, an erosion cirque in the Negev Desert. Places like this make us realize how small beings we are compared to the vastity of the planet we live on, and the silence allover gives the sensation that time doesn't really exist. by: warzone Views[591] Kamikaze Jump. A bunch of friends challenging their fears jumping off the walls of Akko; their way of celebrating the Shabbat, the traditional day of restfor the Jewish culture, gathers an excited audience of locals and turists. The strong fortification wall, started by the crusaders around 1500 years ago and reconstructed by the arabs in 1750, resisting to the attack of Napoleon's Navy, pays tribute to the abilty of the people through all history. by: warzone Views[1123] Colour Bombing. Sunset, Jewish women on a daytrip into the Makhtesh Ramon collecting sand from a natural coloured sand playground, the sand is collected and placed there from all over the crater area. The sacrality of this place is given by the million years of its origins and it's known by humans since it was crossed by the caravans of the ancient incense route. by: warzone Views[398] Airforce. A pair of Tristram's Starlings resting on a rock in Ein Gedi National Reserve; after a couple of hours of spotting, trekking and rock climbing, they decided to pose just a meter far from me, almost choosing themselves this composition. Their species nestle in the area where the ruins behind them lie from 5000 years, originally a temple erected for water-linked ceremonies; overlooking the land home of the Ein Gedi Kibbutz, a recent collective community of people, allowed to live there thanks to the two springs generated from the rainfalls over the mountains behind. by: warzone Views[208]
