Palestinian woman grows flowers in Israeli tear gas canisters

Story is from October, but I just saw the pictures on Reddit and found the link. Making something beautiful out of a horrible situation.

A Palestinian woman waters dozens of plants near her desert home, each growing from used tear gas canisters collected in years of clashes with Israeli soldiers.

Her curious garden, photographed today, is in the village of Bilin, near the West Bank city of Ramallah, the de facto capital of the State of Palestine.
