Photographer Noam Chen for ten years travels around his native country, making fascinating pictures of local nature and cities. The scenery in the frame — magical forests, inland beaches, deserts and wild waterfalls — make it home an exceptional place not like any other country in the world, and at the same time, the storehouse of world culture and mix of nature, reminiscent of a dozen different points on the planet at the same time.
