  • Dawn in Istanbul

    click on the photo for alternate version

    Just before dawn, Istanbul’s fishermen get in their boats and move onto the Bosphorus or the Marmara sea. If you walk or sit along the coastline, you can hear them talking or listening to music. A great place to visit in Istanbul, if you want to sit along the coast, is Kadıköy, which is also where this picture was taken. Inspired by the work of Michael Kenna.

    Tell me, which is better, the above or the alternate version?

  • Happy Birthday! 🙂

    Today’s my girlfriend’s birthday. Look what I made for her! Since I live in Istanbul, and she lives in Sofia, Bulgaria, and we couldn’t be together for her birthday, I still wanted to make something special. So I gathered up some friends and acquaintances at my university and made this! 🙂

    There’s many nationalities in there also… Italian, Dutch, Romanian, American, Turkish, Canadian, Greek, German and Czech. I thanked them for their help afterwards.

    Hope you all like it as much as my girlfriend did. A little bit less is also okay also. 😉

  • Bring It On!!

    Please, don't use boiler. There is central hitting - running hot water. Thank you!

    Bring on the central hitting! 😉

  • Beautiful Istanbul Sunset

    As said in the previous posts, I live very close to the sea. The first evening that I was in my apartment, I got a bit bored and went to walk around a bit. I found a gorgeous sun setting in the sea. Check out the video below… It’s really soothing, relaxing, meditative. 🙂

    Sorry for the crooked horizon… see it as artistic expression.

  • PhotoHunt: Beautiful

    Last year when I was working at the Bulgarian National Radio, they sent me on a worktrip to a town called Troyan. This town lies in central Bulgaria and is not frequently visited by tourists. I was told by the town’s tourist board to go spread the word, I also met the mayor, that’s how few foreign guests they get ;-). Besides work, there was also some time for sightseeing and we visited the church displayed in the picture.

    In general, I find most Bulgarian churches more interesting from the outside than from the inside, although my first encounters with the Eastern Orthodox interior of churches were far from boring. Check out the full album of my pics in Troyan.

    Have you been to Eastern Orthodox churches before? How did you like it? Ever attended a service and care to share how it differs from Protestant or Catholic services? Share now and leave a comment. 🙂

  • PhotoHunt: Dark


    .

    This is the first instalment of , so let me just explain to you what it is. Every Saturday a theme is announced and on Sunday you post a picture from your personal collection that goes with that theme. Without further ado… here is my photo for this week’s theme: dark.


    .

    I took this picture in November last year when I was living in Sofia, Bulgaria. As I was walking home from work one evening, the city was very dark and extremely foggy. This created a rather eerie atmosphere and I decided to capture it. Check out the entire collection.

    So I just got a message with a picture from after the final presentations of the last project I did in university together with some German students. We were just chilling out in a presentation hall and I was editing some parts of the report while sitting on stage (without an audience of course). We decided it would be funny to play (and interact) with the beamer…
