Still Standing by Lea Photography

the Story
Beirut, a city standing in time, where past and present collide.. It’s just a time frame, a state of living in the moment. It stands still as the years pass through it .. You can see the effect of time on the faces you meet, and the stories you gather.. As you stroll down its streets, you witness  a frozen moment, as if the past drew a picture and hung it up on its wall, for spectators to admire, the older it got, the more valuable it became.. Like wrinkles chiseling their way on a woman’s body where stories of wisdom and life found their way. Stories of people who lived throughout tough times, and happy times.. Stories of people fleeing their homes, wishing to come back one day and fill it with the life it deserves .. People who live their present reminiscing on past glories, translated into melodies that keep their minds hanging on a lucid dream.
Beirut.. That place challenging the expansion of time, and holding onto the now.. A game it plays, not in the hopes of winning, but in the anticipation of the journey, where time travel is a possibility for the eye that can see through the past and the present, and admire a simple life rich with memories.
