Istanbul, Turkey - Maiden's Tower
PROTIP: always remember to charge your camera battery. For that reason, this will be my lone upload to Flickr from Istanbul. :-/
We enjoyed Istanbul over the course of 4.5 days, seeing, eating, and doing as much as we could on both sides of the Bosphorus and in both historical and modern contexts. What a wonderful city full of surprises, experiences, and sights: some of which I was excited to take home through photography. It was my intention not to only capture the historical aspects of the city (like this photo), but also the giant modern metropolis Istanbul has become. Then, the discovery of the dead battery, just before ascending the Istanbul Sapphire (260m), no less. Oh well; lesson learned... the hard way.
This one is a stitch of three horizontally oriented photos looking out on the Bosphorus and the European side, with the Maiden's Tower in the middle. An 85mm would have been ideal but I left that at home so I had to make do with 135mm and stitch.
