Lebanese Soha Ghandour’s photo of the beach in Tyre won third place in the travel category. It was shot with an iPhone 5. All 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners from each category will receive IPPAWARDS certificates.

The self-taught photographer developed an interest in photography in 2016 when she started noticing the beauty of streets, people, and architecture. In September 2016, Soha was selected as a finalist for the Byblos Bank Award. That’s when she decided to leave her corporate job and become a full-time photographer.
