Tourist Trap || When Tripods Are Forbidden
This place might look creepy but it’s actually inside the ancient mosque turned museum of Hagia Sophia. This isn't the best photo to illustrate the lavishly decorated interior of this famous location but it’s still kinda cool. Plus, I really wanted to release something dark and gritty today. :)

When tripods are forbidden, I shoot a lot of my HDR Handheld. I recently posted about My 6 Tips For Shooting Handheld HDR: blamethemonkey.com/hdr-photography-tutorial-blog-tips-sho...
