What a beautiful city. I've always had an interest in it from a historical perspective and it didn't disappoint.
So much of the city that was extant during the siege of 1453 still stands, though some by a thread. One night about 3 am I was woken by a tremendous roar. I rushed outside to see that the adjoining building - made of wood and rubble- had collapsed into the street. Luckily no-one was hurt. Go see sometime soon.
The Galata tower. It now has a swanky restaurant on top.
View from the Galata bridge. A great place to watch the sun set over your mojito.

These are fantastic! I like how you've got the details yet pushed it back through the strength of the foreground. My fav the tram across Bosporus with the mosque behind.
Compliments. Very nice style. I like it.
Fantastics works!
Your sketches are even better than the real thing. I admire how you see the reality and how your imagination works as the mirror in between.
Congratulations.
Lovely stuff. Love that waiter piece...
