LEBANON ::: BEIRUT

Jounieh
Even though it's quite a prominent landmark, photographing Arman's vast scuplture it is not easy - getting there takes ages and then, because it's just outside the defence ministry buildings, you have to be escorted by a soldier to make sure you're not including any military installations in the background of the photo!
Luckily my military escort was a keen photographer and he seemed happy to let me take my time setting up the tripod and so on. Less luckily, the weather was miserable!
