   Beautiful photos! I havent been to Istanbul since the 80′s, but remember it being one of the most beautiful, amazing cities in the world.

   Hey Abi,

   “Eline saglik!” (health to your hand), as they say in these parts. As a photography buff myself, I was very impressed by your work. Is the mosque in the last photo the Yeni Cami? The spectrum of colors that you captured in that photo — black to deep purple to violet — is amazing.

   Thanks again for a great bunch of photos.

   Hey Abi,

   Beautiful pictures! You should come back in spring; when Bosphorus is covered with pinkish erguvan (judas tree) flowers and streets are decorated with tulips.

   The last mosque is the Fatih Mosque above the Golden Horn.
