American Photographer “Not Inspired” By Beirut

July 6, 2010 · Mustapha Hamoui

Oh man, what an indictment:

Normally I would have brought back hundreds if not thousands of pictures from an exotic place I’ve never been to before. But in Beirut I took less than 80 photos. I think this might be my new gauge as to how much I like a place.

He really tried to like Beirut but it

simply didn’t inspire me to take photos like most other places.

Don’t be depressed, fellow Lebanese, there are other Americans who very much enjoy taking photos in Beirut.
