Turkish Baths, a photo from Karabuk, Black Sea

Photographer's Note

The old hamam (Turkish Bath) in Safranbolu at sunset. Looks like it is also used as the local taxi rank.

Hello Chris,
I may have a very similar photo. At lest I clearly remember these baths, especially seeing them from this angle. The pink sunset clouds match the red brick roofs particularly well, and the yellow taxis somehow also fit this view nicely. A few persons animate the view.
Best regards,
Gert

Lepi krovivi starog Hamama.
Lepa fotografija i uhvaceni trenutak.
U Kumanovu je bio Hamam, gde nas je pokojni otac, pokojnog brata i mene vodio na kupanje.
Paja.

Bonjour Chris,

Les véhicules jaunes attirent le regard. La prise de vue permet de voir les détails de l'immeubles des bains turcs. Le coucher de soleil donne de belles couleurs au ciel. Bonne journée.

Hello Chris,

Did you use these baths?
There is a Victorian, Turkish Bath at Harrogate, which has not been altered internally since first built. I can vouch that it is a special and relaxing experience.

I like the shapes!
They look like mini mosques, all with their neat, perfectly-formed domes! I imagine that the late sun is making the domes seem darker red than the normal terracotta.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Chris,
A great photo from a good viewpoint of these old baths. I really like the many small domes and the two larger domes of the building as well as the many yellow vans around it. The pastel pink colours of the sky make a great background.

Hello Chris.
A beautiful composition, with that pink light at the end of the day, these bathrooms must have an enormous age and are kept in very good condition, ideal that set of small domes, together with the two largest that must belong to the main rooms in the same.
A magnificent range of colors, in very attractive tones.
Good management of brightness and sharpness.
Well done. I like it.
Have a great day.
Very best regards.
Luis.
