Photographer's Note
While we were coming back to the other side of Jordan River we crossed this druze town named Mas'Ada. This area is famous because the grapes and the special cherries. rnIn the background you can see Hermon Mount, the highest peak in this region. Some people says Jesus was there in the moment of transfiguration. This side of the mountain is territory of Syria and the other side is Lebanon. rnDruzes are an Arab people with a different religion, a mix of many influences.It is a people persecuted by muslins and because this they found more prosperity since Israelis dominated this region.
.......................
Enquanto voltávamos para atravessar o Rio Jordão passamos por esta cidade drusa, de uma região famosa poor suas vinhas e cerejais. Ao fundo podemos ver o Monte Hermon, que é a montanha mais alta desta região. Segundo alguns foi nele que Jesus se transfigurou. rnO lado de cá do monte é território sírio enquanto do outro lado da montanha é território do Líbano.rnOs drusos são um povo árabe que possui uma religião própria, uma mistura de várias influências. É um povo muito perseguido pelos muçulmanos e encontrou prosperidade depois que os israelenses dominaram essa região.

Hello Jorge
Such a complex region with so many deep divisions. Good color and sharpness and it seems that life goes on here with comparative normality when looking at other Syrian towns like Homs or Aleppo, judging from the old broken furniture left out in the street for collection. Tfs!

Hi Jorge
It's clean and direct shot of the street scene yet a strong compo with lovely detail and range of colour across the frame. The vehicle pulls the eye allowing us to absorb the whole capture. Nice simple shot, Congrats.
Best regards
