[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Istanbul does not only consist of cultural highlights. The original life in Istanbul takes place off the main streets. In order to see everything, one needs a good condition and a city plan.
In a small lane with names kasnak cilar, not far from the Sueleymaniye camii, I saw this table with fresh apples. It was midday, and the small lunch counter in the background was full men.

Hello Wolfgang,
The angle of view here adds much vitality and interest to this scene of everyday life. Excellent perspective and very good colours and clarity.

Hello Wolfgang,

I see this table with fresh apples in foreground, but the street in a slope this gives a nice perspective but very unusual for looking, colour and sharpness are very well.
Thanks for sharing.

Best regards,
John.

Hallo Wolfgang!
Wunderschön - und interessant - mit vielen "Nebenher--Details"! Außerdem gefällt mir der Aufbau des Bildes sehr
Grüße aus dem regnerischen Siegen!

Hi Wolfgang

Very sharp with good detail. Interesting tilt to this comp. It really works. Nice colors. A good capture of daily life. Well done.
Ben

An interesting slice of Istanbul street life, with a lot of little details to enjoy.
Good use of the apple stall in the foreground, although I would have liked to have seen the whole of that bowl included.
The tilt isn't really my cup of tea though.

Cheers,
Ben

Hello Wolfgang,
I like this kind of life catch image. It is like if we were inside the scene ant the composition with the tilt is helping it. Beautiful colors as well. This is good !
Have a nice evening.
Best regards, Christian

Hallo Wolfgang!
Das sieht fast aus wie an manchen Ecken in Mannheim.Die Äpfel sind ein schöner Vordergrund für den Dönerladen .Für ein aus der Hüfte geschossenes BIld,sehr gut und der Mann in grün der mit seinem Mittagessen vorbeiläuft,macht die Kompo perfekt.
Gruß,Leo

Hallo Wolfgang, Du bist nicht nur ein guter Beobachter, Du hast auch noch Glück, denn stell Dir vor, der junge Mann mit Mittagessen hätte z.B. eine braune Jacke getragen - das Foto wäre sicher nicht ganz so gut. Ich finde das Kippen auch o.k.
Gruß
Elvira
