Full Moon, over Kartaba/Qartaba, Lebanon

Published July 9, 2010 | By Shant

I was going up to Kartaba about two weeks ago & the full moon just popped out in front of me, couldn’t resist stopping on the side of the road & shooting it! No tripod used.

Baysour Busted, Big Time!!

Published June 9, 2010 | By Shant

Baysour Busted

Yup, it is!!

My first post I had on this blog was about Baysour, the place with great waterfalls, lakes, ponds… the photos of which we all got in our emails (and still do) & couldn’t really find it.

This year I was determined to find it. My info said that there are four Baysours in Lebanon. The main being the one next to Aley, where we did go last year & where my search was going to start.

Around Baysour there are 4 rivers that join each other, so I knew it was going to be a hard search. Right before I meet with a friend & decide how/when to go for the “baysour hunt”, I did a google search “Baysour is it true / hoax” (or something in this term) & I found out a blog that has the definite answer! It was a hoax, a big one!

So There is no beautiful waterfalls, lakes & ponds in Baysour – Lebanon, don’t bother & look for it! The max you will see is already on this blog. If you want to see those, go to the nearest Croatian embassy & apply for a visa (if you need it) cause those pics are actually in Plitvice Lakes National Park – Croatia

If you came across this blog looking for the location/more photos (cause a lot of people do), I’m sorry, no Baysour here…
