I can't say that I like to brag.
I can't say that I'm complaining.
I can't say that I feel like being indoors.
...it was a really warm, warm, super warm here (78F/26C) and I took day off as soon as I greeted the morning sun. It was giving a mid-summer feeling to us, Istanbulians. tee-shirt back, bike back, lovers back sharing their love along the seaside, people chase the puppy in the parks, crying flowers as if to say that they want to re-bloom earlier, more and more notes about how we enjoy the sunshine...
}{Early hours of my day started noticing cafés full of people lingering over coffee to,
ending it at home, unwillingly.}{
And all I want is that the weather stays this way in Istanbul very good. That is what I wished this month for myself, for everyone:) Oh, and yes a plate of mandarin must have awakened my brain cells;)
I knew:
Yes. It's November. I'm thankful. Always.

hi nihal. wow your photos are wonderful. you really get the feel for each place you visit. i love your eye. besos-jane p.s. are you on flickr?
ReplyDeleteHello Nihal! This is really a pleasant walk with very fine images, I enjoy them so much.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for your virtual help about the NO TAV. I don't live in the Susa Valley but have travelled especially during the holidays since I was a child that charming valley, which is very green, full of many ancient villages with their old churches, castles, houses, little squares, fountains, lanes. I hope the construction of the TAV will not disfigure that enchanting environment.
Happy new week!
oh I love the photo's. They're beautiful.I can almost imagine the day.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures!
ReplyDeleteLove all of the pigeons. :D
@ Jane: Oh sweet of you, muchos gracias for your lovely note. I love your eye, too. No, I'm not on flickr. Many many readers have been asking the same you did since I started blogging, but as I replied them before, I take photos to cheer up my articles. And, this writing experience showed that photography sounds like another hobby of mine. Yes, I could improve my "hidden" skill. I'll have to think about it:)
ReplyDelete@ Catharina, Kari and Jenna: Warm welcome wishes, and thank you for kind comments that each was enough lovely to brighten my day:)
