As promised to Stany, I start to publish several images I took during my trip in Lebanon.
I used the Canon 5D MkII withe different lenses: 16/35 f/2,8 L USM - 24/105 F/4 L IS USM - 100/400 f/4,5-5,6 L IS USM.
Every pictures are taken in CR2. Post-production with DxO in JPG and CS4. Several pics are modified with Topaz plugin.
Thanks for your interest
The very first step will be Beyrouth where we stood for 15 days making mini trips into the country that is not so wide.
Beyrouth is a city full of contrast due to the war, the religions et the deep past of that country.
What surprised me in Beyrouth was that kind of rage they have to rebuild the city. They are mainly setting up high class buildings. Appartments within these buildings are having more or less between 300m² to more than 1.000m². Incredible for such an European like me.
The workers are principally coming from Syria. They work from very early in the morning till late in the evening. Working also during the WE. Here are several pictures I took about the remaining of the war and the new constructions.

Re: My triip in Lebanon: Beyrouth (I)
What a great set of images, I'm not really interested in architecture photography, but you and others on this forum are actually pretty inspiring.
My favourites from this set are 2,4 and 7.
