day 5 in Istanbul! by Niklas Lindskog
* In the morning I gave Keef a couple of options on where to go shoot on this day. He chose taking the ferry to Asia.
* We left the apartment at 11am and walked down the hill to the new ferry terminal at Karaköy and got the ferry to Kadiköy. It was an overcast day, which can take some drama away from the photos, but on the other hand it simplifies, by removing one of the complexities of photography.
* Lunchtime was coming up quickly and we got some köfte on fried bread and bean salads.
* First we covered the small market area and later we walked along the little tram line which makes a loop around Kadiköy.
* Cay and Turkish coffee at a chocolatier, who was generous enough to give us some extra pralines!
* We found a lot of beautiful small streets running up and down hills with plenty of subjects everywhere.
* At about 6 pm we got the ferry back to Europe and had a chicken dinner at the Karaköy waterfront watching the sun set behind the Sultanahmet mosques.
Be well, everybody!
