Istanbul mix

I haven't been posting in a long time and now I'm living in Helsinki, but here's a random mix of photos that I took in Istanbul during the spring. More and less abstract stuff, all happily mixed together. Istanbul was such an experience. I hope to go back there at some point to continue my Strangely quiet -series, yet right now Helsinki feels like the best place for me to be.

Istanbul osa 4 / Istanbul part 4

Now that I got into the mood of posting, here's another bunch of photos. Still not many people in the photos. I've realized that the reason why I rarely have more than two people in a photo is that when there's more people, the composition of the image becomes much harder to control, and it's also more difficult to include enough empty space.

Here's a quite random set of photos that I took three or four weeks ago. Funnily I just realized that in these photos I've photographed all people from behind and only cats are the ones that are looking to the camera. 

Kadıköy Friday Market, Istanbul

Here's finally my second post from Istanbul. 

When I was here in January I only went to the Sunday market in Tarlabaşı, but now I wanted to see the one here in Kadıköy which is open twice a week, on Tuesdays and Fridays. Like on every Turkish market where I've been (also counting the one in Berlin), the atmosphere was great and I found so much to photograph. After spending there two or three hours the card in my camera was full and so where my hands. Next time I'll buy some sport clothes.
