[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Dolmabahce Palace Gates.

You can see the guards changing shifts during daytime. This was taken at 17:45 so no royal guards can bee seen on this photo.
A self critique: there should have been more sky and less ground. 18mm wasnt enough for this shot i guess.

Dolmabahçe Palace was the first European-style palace in Istanbul.
Built by Sultan Abdülmecid between 1842 and 1853, at a cost of five million Ottoman gold pounds, the equivalent of 35 tons of gold. 14 tons of gold was used only to adorn the interior ceiling of the palace.

Merhaba,
Aydınlatma detayları çok güzel ortaya çıkarmış sen de çok iyi yakalamışsın. Pozlama ve renk tonları harika olmuş. Oldukça görkemli gözüküyor. Tebrikler

Hello Alper!
Beautiful night shot, but is not very sharp. I try to change a little bit in WS. I hope you will like it!
Greetings!
Lili
