Turkish People ! Photo

Photographer’s Note

The toughest picture to take in Turkey, especially the womens, who run not to be photographed. That's Turkey as u see it on the streets of Manavgat.
Please see the large post for details on the photos.

people in different mood were well captured. If someone doesnot like to have shot, then we can't force them, it's their own choice. I like the smiling face of the lady in left bottom panel.

Great idea, and well put together montage. I agree with you that I counldn't detect any racism in either the shot or the the note, just a report on how you found things.

The joke understanding, of course, change from people to people and from country to country as well. No one, in Turkey, offer to someone to take the photos of his family especially his wife. NO ONE Dan. There is no such thing in our culture and tradition. I am not telling you that you are liar but this can not be true.

Yes there is no racism here. But there is something else and TE is not the place to discuss such things.

I wish you can come here and be my guest. Thus you'll have the chance to see the beauties of my country as well as your people coming here for COMMERCIAL purposes.

Cum de o scapasem pe asta? Superba idee, detalii bune, expresii diferite, trairi impartasite, dar si furate..ai realizat un fotoreportaj...o bag in favourites, fara indoiala.
Bogdan.

P.S.: omul cu matura imi place cel mai mult.
