Hello Mesut,
A once beautiful building that still keeps some of its elegance even in this state of disrepair. I like the view of the two strets on each side. I wish that the current economic boom in Turkey would create the means to keep these traditional buildings in a decent shape.
Kind regards,
Gert

PS I regret that I didn't call you a few weeks ago. Istanbul kept me so busy during my short stay that I totally forgot to get in touch.

Hi Mesut
looking at this, the building cannot still be in use today is it?
I'm trying to make out in my mind how this building would have looked in its best moments, and i'm sure it looked great!
love these character shots.
cheers

Hello Mesut.
An interesting composition, with this remarkable building, but now we see in a sorry state of preservation, we can imagine truly remarkable, both for its style and its situation.
Magnificent management of light, crisp and a nice colorful natural.
Have a nice day.
Best regards.
Luis.

Hello Mesut,
Three facades, each on a different street. A dilemma to determine the right address :)
I don't know if restoration is still possible but it is nevertheless important for the architectural heritage.
Best regards, Paul

Hi Mesut,
A good photo of this old house. I believe the owner will have to find a reliable renovator soon...
Kind regards

Hello Mesut,
this house in the corner used to be very beautiful, interesting its architecture. It is very pitty that today looks like that. You captured this wonderfully. Perfect well done. I really like this photo.
All; the best,

Merhaba Mesut Bey
Una vecchia casa, ad angolo,
Due prospettive, due strade.
Mi affascinano queste case e la architettura "stretta" .
Difficile la ristrutturazione , rimane invece la bellezza fotografica .

Hi Mesut, This house is really old. It looks abandoned already. Must be marvelous to wander around there, in typical Turkish streets. Most tourist spending time only on the sea shore have no opportunity to see it.

Warm regrads

Meraba Mesut Abi,
Ne yazık bu evler zamanla yıkılıp gitmeye mahkum, oysa Trilye'ye kimliğine veren yapılar.. Güzel bir açı, güzel bir mimari kare..

Selamlar..

Hi Mesut,

The house is well placed in the frame. The point of view is showing the details and colors of the architecture of the house on the corner of the street. The light has a good effect on the colors. Have a nice day.

Curious house located at the bend...we can see two streets here not the 3rd. Like the rustic beauty of the house, seems that wood was used in construction. A fine picture in the true spirit of TE

Hello Mesut,

How sad that this poor house has been left to get in such a state! But I can see that it was once beautiful and must have been very much nicer than the modern houses behind it.

A very well composed image with lovely light and shade and fine colours. The little splash of red at bottom right is an important feature. Excellent detail and sharpness too.

Lovely!

Kind Regards,

John.

Hello Mesut,
lovely and interesting architecture in perhaps irreversable deterioration. The picture is composed from a great point of view that with pleasing depth and perspective gives us a precise idea of the character, position and present state of the old traditional building. Sharpness is superb, lighting and conrasts so becoming. It could be fascinating living there surrounded by so many windows with a view. Or it could be a big challenge to the inhabitants' privacy and peacefulness. A great photo, well done and thank you!
All the best, have a good evening,
Ourania

Merhaba, my friend Mesut,
It's amazing to see how this old house is still standing, due to its almost ruinous condition.
But in this framing we can enjoy the graphical power that it provides to your composition, in which you have emphasized its shapes on the sky, using a good visual angle.
I like the luminosity and the quality of the colors of your photo.
It is a beautiful work.
Best regards,
Josep

Hello, Mesut,
I like this photo. It is very nice old house, it needs a good reconstruction indeed. But I think, this small cozy house remembers better times. TFS!

Hello Mesut,
this "typical" old house is very picturesque, especially as compared to those modern new buildings on the left :)
This house reminds me of a very, very old person who still has enough energy left to continue living :)
best regards,
Elena
