Default Jounieh bay_lebanon 09

Hi everyone! This photo was taken from my recent trip to Lebanon:

Harissa_lebanon 09

It is about 26 km far from Beirut, overlooking the bay of Jounieh, the sanctuary of The Lady of Lebanon (Virgin Marry), which was erected in 1904 over the hill of Harissa, can be seen from miles.

You have a good eye for photography!
I really like the composition and the soft tones in your picture.
I think the way you framed the nice reflection of the setting sun using the trees, both kinds low and tall, is very smart!

Thank you so much flavio, I appreciate your lovely comment! I took this photo in my trip to lebanon early this month with the family! Nobody would wait for me to take my time so I am always left with few minutes to aim and shoot..I am glad that you liked it and that you saw an eye of a photography in me!

I like the monochromatic tones and the framing of the sunset between the trees.
