Merhaba Recep Bey.
Amasra'yı gidip ,gören ve gezen arkadaşlarım var, çok methettiler. Siyah beyaz da olsa renklerini bu karede tahmin edebiliyorum. Gitmem gereken yerler arasında ilk sıralarda diyebilirim. Her şeyiyle yerli yerinde mükemmel bir sİyah beyaz çalışma. Tebrikler,selamlar.

The b&w has a distinctive appeal even for the classic scenes. Reminds me of a Turkish stamp series of the 1950s, figuring diferent prefectures in Turkey.

I just wish the beautiful peninsula setting could be given by a different angle.

Did you have a chance to go to Cide and Gideros, to see the steep cliffson the shore line?

Selamlar,

Erdem
