Wel done Adrian - my favourite is the Ephesian library - the sky sets it off very well.

Thanks i-Berg, by aiming high I also managed to avoid getting fellow tourists into the shot Wel done Adrian - my favourite is the Ephesian library - the sky sets it off very well.

Don't know why Gareth, but I'm a bit wary when taking pictures of people (notice how the old lady is looking at me from the corner of her eye...).I like No.4 I'm a sucker for classic shots of oldy world traditions from other contries.

I took a couple of the old lady (landscape & portrait), plus another of a pretty young lady who even smiled for me
Both have been cropped.

I'm a sucker for the same. I love taking pictures of people, especially when they depict a traditional culture.

I really like the carpet maker, Adrian. The views are pretty sound as well. Looks like a great place to visit.
Best wishes,
Andrew

4 and 5 have a nice non-touristy feel to them. And definitely, the mono does not work as well.

Thanks K10 & Smeggypants
We literally only had five minutes in the room with the carpet makers, with quite a few tourists in one another's way
Cheers for the mono Gareth.
The un-cropped picture of the young lady contained much more of the radiators, not much that could have been done unfortunately.
Another young lady had her back facing us, so I didn't bother posting that one.
Cheers all.

and I find that travel tradional culture shots can sometimes add more mood just by converting it to mono? Her face is a little dark as it was a quick, cheap and cheerful edit !

Very nice set, I especially like the first and last. These reminded me of a lovely holiday I had in little place called Gumusluk, not far from Bodrum.
