My Istanbul Impressions

The Hagia Sophia Mosque

through the glass door to the balcony of our little hotel.

Hagia Sophia (from the Greek: "Holy Wisdom"; Latin: Sancta Sophia or Sancta Sapientia; Turkish: Ayasofya) is a former Greek Orthodox patriarchal basilica (church), later an imperial mosque, and now a museum (Ayasofya Müzesi) in Istanbul, Turkey. From the date of its construction in 537 until 1453, it served as an Eastern Orthodox cathedral and seat of the Patriarchate of Constantinople,[1] except between 1204 and 1261, when it was converted to a Roman Catholic cathedral under the Latin Empire. The building was a mosque from 29 May 1453 until 1931. It was then secularized and opened as a museum on 1 February 1935.[2]

Ein herrlicher Panoramablick über Istambul und die berühmte Moschee. *****
Besonders schön finde ich den Vogel im Vordergrund und die angeschnittene Balkonbrüstung^^

Raben sind sehr gescheite Vögel. Was er wohl denkt bei Deinem Anblick und dem Hintergrund. Ein tolles und sicher sehr oft fotografiertes Motiv.

Eine sehr schöne Moschee, aber der Hingucker ist hier der Vogel, der scheinbar die tolle Aussicht auch genießt :-)

found you under one of Michael Stuebens images/comment, so I decided to have a look what kind of photography you do...well I am impressed. Like this image, also wondering if the bird would have been sharp and the architecture out of focus....just an idea. greets sonja from africa
