Voice of the Mountains
Aminadav Forest
Limited edition of 101
This photo embodies for me a story I once read that continues to inspire me: Rav Yitzchak Hutner told that he once took a walk with Rav Avraham Yitzchak Kook and another man amidst the mountains of the Land of Israel. Rav Kook went on about how impressed he was by the landscape. The other man asked him, “But you were in the Swiss Alps. What is so special about these mountains?” Rav Kook replied, "The Alps don’t speak to me." I am not yet able to articulate in words what makes Israel so special to me, but I feel that this story and this photo begin to express it.
