Istanbul fashion

Posters on an Istanbul wall
Turkey is the land of contrasts. And how the woman dress can be a good example of this. Some are as the girls you find elsewhere in Europe, with short skirts and long hair, but many are wearing their headscarf with pride, no hair is shown, and accompanied with a long dark coat. 

The Blue Mosque

The ceiling in the Blue Mosque
I didn´t come to the blue mosque with any expectations, but what I found was truly beautiful, the patterns making the stone wall soft, the complexity of the construction and the variations of space. Alltogether this was amazing.
