Northern Lebanon trek and Juniper trees
p.1 #1Northern Lebanon trek and Juniper trees
A three-day hike in the mountains at altitudes ranging from 1,500 to 2,600 meters, featuring remarkable scenery and excellent evening meals at local homes.
The 2,500-meter elevation gain dictated the choice of lightweight gear: Sony A7II and Nikon AF 28-70/3.5-4.5 and Nikon E 75-150/3.5 zoom lenses.
Curiously, even though I used both lenses more or less equally, I chose to keep the photos taken with the telephoto lens.

p.1 #3Northern Lebanon trek and Juniper trees
It's as if "the wind could blow the skin right off the trees." I don't think I've ever seen trees blown/grown parallel to the tilted slope. Loving the contrast in the b/w images, reminiscent of 19th century masters of early landscape photography. The color images kind of pale in comparison to the monochrome beauties.
I'd like to see the Flickr album images but the links get error "The page isn’t redirecting properly."
I searched for Michel Ferrand and found seven.
Flickr tells me that "michel ferrand hasn’t made any photos public yet." All seven have joined 2015-2022.

There is indeed an issue with the links. But I am clueless. I will edit the post tomorrow if it doesn't self correct. You can find my Flickr gallery looking for lumens pixel.
Thank you for your interest and for pointing the problem.
