I like how this photo turned out, nearly monochrome with lines and angles, planes and fields, depth and flatness.The bright white and the dingy beige, the push and pull of shapes going this way and that.
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).
Life on the terraces of Beirut... must be all sorts of fascinating things transpiring there...
ReplyDeleteYes I like it too ... feels quite art deco.
ReplyDeleteyou know what I love most about your posts - is the way you give fasinating descriptions to ordinary looking pictures... great work!!!
ReplyDeleteSuch nice comments. Thanks, everyone.
ReplyDeleteLove the art deco buildings in Ashrafieh and Gemayze. Hope they stay forever.
