Travel nominee

I spent a month in Istanbul in August 2019 with my wife and by the end of the journey I fell in love with this city as most of the people do who visited this wonderful place. We used to go outside after noon prayer when the shadows of objects becomes twice as long as the objects themselves, and would come back home by evening prayer when the sun is completely hidden behind the horizon. As a result of my walks I decided to publish a book of light and color of Istanbul. However my work isn’t not finished yet and I certainly have to come back to the city where I had once been happy to be able to keep working on this book.
