Everybody's looking for something. Mary Ann is looking for the real Beirut, whatever that means. These are the photos she takes along the way.
You can browse around the archives here or check out her other blogs. There's one from a few years ago, back when she blogged about art. And then there's another from '09 when she lived in St. Louis (USA).
It looks nice. The colors remind me of Easter eggs.
ReplyDeleteThese buildings are beautiful, I love the soft colors!

I like the colors, the unique windows and architectural details!
