[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
We are now in Kekova, also known as Kale, some 100 kms southwest of Antalya. A charming place which has retained the atmosphere that Turkey must have had 50 or 60 years ago before mass tourism started. Here no 5 star hotels, no concrete buildings, just small alleys which lead to an ancient castle, and some gulet boats which come for a daily visit with people who appreciate one of the last places with so much charm.
The sea is probably one of the cleanest of the coast, and the area is full with ancient Lycian tombs and during a boat trip ( Preferably in the morning because of the wind in the afternoon ) the visitors can see the remnants of a sunken city, along Kekova island.

Hello Izzet,
i have a dream ...
Regards.

Christian .

Merhaba İzzet Bey,
Begonvillerin ardından,Kekovanın muhteşem mavisi ve tur teknesinin özendiren duruşu ile gerçekten tam anlamıyla yaz güzelliği. Kale yi Finikeden kalkan böyle günlük tekne turu ile 6 yıl önce denizden görmüştüm,güneyin en özel ve güzel beldesi denebilir.Şimdi orada olmak vardı dedirten harika manzarayı paylaşımınız için teşekkürler, elinize sağlık.

ciao izzet,

interesting pic and suggestion for next vacation.

btw I do agree with you, mass tourism brings with itself waves of concrete, masses of people who don't care, bad food and no will at all to learn something from the place they are visiting.
furthermore...mass tourism has created these tourist villages and clubs...they are just jailed where last minute tourists are cattled in!

ciao
Silvio

Selamlar mavinin tonları ve ön plandaki çiçeklerin varlığı çok iyi..Tebrikler

Hello Izzet Bey,
Truly superb presentation. The way you composed the photo with the curved line of wonderful colored flowers and the way the photo is breathing due to the open left side without the flowers, the vivid colors, the boats reflections on the water and the shades of the blue in the sea are superb.
Best personal regards. Salvator.
