We decided to run a photo contest and asked our Facebook fans to send us their best photos of Israel. Our mailbox was filled with amazing pictures. We posted three finalists to our Facebook page and asked our audience to vote in Facebook ‘Likes’ for the winner.
Laurie B. took this photo on her trip to Israel. You are looking towards the Dead Sea through an opening in the rocks of Masada. Upon seeing it, one of our readers commented, “From darkness to light! Awesome.” She is our winner with 3,948 Facebook ‘Likes’!

Second place with 2,960 Facebook ‘Likes’ goes to Ari M. and his photo of this gorgeous Israeli sunset.

In 3rd place with 2,871 ‘Likes’ is Lori H’s photo of a powerful hug between a mother and her son in the IDF.
Thank you to everyone who sent photos, congratulations to finalists Lori H. and Ari M., and Mazal Tov to our winner Laurie B!
