EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of the ruins at Byblos, Lebanon. Standing proudly against a backdrop of clear blue skies and sparkling turquoise waters, the remains of the temple of Baalat Gebel transport us back to an ancient civilization that thrived over 4,800 years ago. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the impressive Roman colonnade, which dates back to the 3rd century A. D. Its towering pillars create a striking contrast against the serene natural surroundings. The vertical composition emphasizes their grandeur while also drawing our gaze towards the horizon where water meets sky. As we explore this photograph further, we notice a lone tree standing resiliently amidst these historic remnants. It serves as a reminder that nature continues to flourish even in places touched by human history. Byblos itself holds immense historical significance as one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. This image encapsulates its rich heritage and invites us to ponder upon centuries gone by. With its vibrant colors and high angle view, this photograph transports us into another era—a time when civilizations rose and fell along these Mediterranean shores. It beckons travelers from all corners of Asia and beyond to visit this remarkable destination steeped in history
