En: On a spring morning, as the pleasant sun shone over the Botanical Gardens in Jerusalem, Eliyav, Miriam, and Yonatan gathered at the entrance. He: היה חג שבועות, זמן של מתן תורה ושל טבע בשיא פריחתו. En: It was the holiday of Shavuot, a time of the giving of the Torah and nature at its peak bloom. He: אליאב הביט במרים כשהיא צילמה פרחים עם המצלמה שלה. En: Eliyav watched Miriam as she photographed flowers with her camera. He: הוא אהב את הצילום שלה, אך יותר מכל, אהב אותה.
