rooms for rent Photo

Photographer’s Note

rooms for rent
only joking ,but earlier many people lived in caves like these carved into the soft tuffstone and some still do in Göreme,Uchisar,Ürgüp and many other places in Cappadokia.
Many hotels and pensions offer rooms carved into the rock.
At my first visit in Cappadokkia in late october 2005 I stayed in one of these rooms in Uchisar.At night there was frost outside but inside it was very comfortable without a heating.

Hi Leo,

Gorgeous light warming up this unusual landscape. The direction of the sun makes the shapes popping-up, providing extra dimension.

Good work!

hi Leo,
I have added this photo to my "places to go" theme, the possibility to spend a night in a cave sounds very, VERY tempting :)
I like a lot the clear yet soft light, it nicely brings out the textures of this amazing natural phenomenon. I've always thought these mountains looked like a chocolate cake :) very nice work, my compliments.

regards,
Kristine

Hello Leo.
An excellent picture, almost a B&W.
The entire shot is perfectly exposed.
The rock in the fg is well placed to give depth to the shot.
Best regards.
Bobo.

Just fascinating, Leo!
I love that warm light and the patterns the rocks and shadows make are amazing. Perfect contrast, excellent depth and I really like the bits of green in contrast to all the warm color of the rocks around it. This is incredible. Would LOVE to get to visit there. Many thanks and warm regards,
Shelly

Hallo Andreas!
Hier hast Du wieder ein tolles Licht eingefangen, das diese Wellen, Falten, Zacken, Kurven ... eindrucksvoll herausarbeitet. Es entsteht ein nahezu 3D-Effekt.
Diese Wohnungen sind wirklich naturnah und umweltfreundlich - nur der Zugang ... ;-)
Grüße aus dem grautrüben Siegen!

J'apprécie beaucoup.
Best regards.

Hi Leo

I like very much the shapes of the mountains under this warm light. As you describe it, a night inside one of the troglodyte dwellings is a joyful perspective. Thanks for the idea!
I am a bit late to celebrate your 500th post, but congratulations! And for your 504th too!
Best regards
Marine

Hi Leo,
Always impressive, original and strange landscape, well framed and good note to tell us about these houses in this place. Nice light.

axiotea (16133) 2008-11-06 11:10

Hello Leo
Your title made me smile!
The light here is very special and emphasized the beauty of this landscape! Beautiful colors and contrast!
Cheers

Hi Leo
Have I already said that all these pictures you brought back from Turkey are gorgeous ?
This one is no exception.
Lighting is great.
Bravo
Chris

bostankorkulugu (33670) 2008-11-06 11:50

am i day dreaming or have i just seen another shot from you out here minutes ago, a shot from kalkan with a funny note?...
anyway, this is better that the kalkan shot of course:)... the light is not the best may be, and it lacks a bit of contrast but still very nice leo...

Hi Leo,
This landscape is amazing, so different from what we use to see!
TFS! I am looking at your photo on a laptop and I played with the angle of my screen. Then, colours go from pale yellow to golden warm tones (and this gives an amazing result!).
Nice view!
Regards,
Marianne

Hi Leo,
Amazing shot! captured this unusual terrain carefully with soft and warm light. Depiction of the texture with natural sharpness is excellent. I have become to want to go there gradually.
Have a nice day, Hisashi

Floydian (30970) 2008-11-07 1:33

Hallo Andreas,
I think we both stood at the same point here, i have also such an image in one of my many boxes upstairs.
But i know for sure my light was not as good this one, this is much warmer and gives a much niceer impression on the area. A nice view with good light in this strange but very interesting landscape...
Regards, Henk

Hi Leo,
ein weiteres deiner super Tüürkeibilder, würde ich auch gerne mal selber sehen, sieht toll aus. Na wer möchte denn nicht da wohnen ;-) Wirklich gut gemacht, der Blickwinkel ist gut gewählt und das Bild einwandfrei komponiert (sagt man das so auf Deutsch, keine Ahnung aber klingt gut ;-)). Wirklich sehr gute Arbeit, gefällt mir richtig gut!

Beste Grüße
Mark

Hello Andreas,

Another great shot to continue your Cappadokia series. A classic postcard image, very well captured with perfect sharpness.

This is a place that I have to visit one day - the shapes of the hills are incredible and beautiful. Nice angle of light for this, which shows the smooth curves very well. Interesting about how the rooms are warm inside even on a cold day. Thanks for sharing!

Encore une magnifique image de cet endroit sous cette très belle lumière qui souligne les reliefs des roches.Une très belle qualité d'image.
Amicalement
JJ

Emile (20001) 2008-11-07 22:00

Hola Leo.
Very impressive shot and also an amazing place, very well captured from a very good POV. Light, colors and sharpness are great.
Well done.
Best regards.

Angshu (33737) 2008-11-10 2:07

Hello Leo
Thse structures, even though I've seen pictures earlier, look crazy! Like the toppings of an icecream on a cone. Bathed in nice warm light, they look good here. I'm sure it's not easy to take pictures of these structures, but you've done well here. Good work!
Best Regards
Angshu

Leo,
I was directed here from you pano view. While I like the pano view it give the overall view of the area, showing just how massive the place is, but I also really like the close up look and details of this one, it give, it amazing this landscape and how people can carved out the place for living or at least rented it out to a certain German tourist, :) Beautiful light and great details composition. I love it.
