Tu BiShvat, “The New Year of the Trees” was one of the most celebrated occasions during Israel’s early years. The hebrew date of the 15th of Shevat was dedicated to tree planting ceremonies and an overall appreciation of the land and it’s fruits. Rudi took this series of portraits at a tree planting event at a school. We enjoyed the complete concentration of the child’s gaze on the delicate plant, his school bag mixing with the natural surroundings. The play of focus and blur that’s created in this photo is a smal,l perfect moment of recreation in nature.
