Eskisehir by night IV Photo

Photographer’s Note

Doğu Anadolu fotoğrafları bitmedi ama biraz ara verip güzel memleketimden fotoğraflarla devam etmek istiyorum. Adalar civarından bir gece çekimi.

Eskisehir is one of the oldest settlements (3500 BC) in this region of Anatolia. It was founded in the 1st millennium BC by the Phrygians. The Porsuk River and its banks have been a proper foundation place. The city is of interest with its museums; the Archaeological Museum which houses the Phrygian objects and sculptures; the Ottoman House Museum which is a very fine example of the 19th century domestic architecture and has the local ethnographical items.

There are three significant tombs around Eskisehir. These are Sheik Edibali Tomb, The Kumbet Baba Tomb, and The Cupola of Alemsah. Phrygian Valley, The Falcon Fortress, The Unfinished Monument, and the Gerdek Rock are other historical sites to visit. In Eskisehir you will frequently see items made of meerschaum stone since this is the place where it originates. You will see the best meerschaum stone works at the Meerschaum Museum; it is a very light white stone and mostly used to make smoking pipes. The Rug and Seyitgazi Museums have many samples of different kinds of kilims and hand-knit socks and stockings.

In Eskisehir there is opportunity to have good time at Sakaryabasi where there is a spring lake and fresh fish restaurants in which you can also find traditional Turkish meals.

Outside Eskisehir is Sivrihisar (Justinianopolis) full of typical Ottoman houses and famous for its kilims. Seyit Battal Gazi (Nakoleia) is 45 km south of Eskisehir. The mosque complex on the hill was built to pay homage to the Islamic hero Seyit Battal.

The Yunus Emre Village is the burial place of the world famous great poet of the 13th century, Yunus Emre. There is a commemorative tomb built for him as well as a museum, and celebrations are held here every May.
"Birth Festivities" which are dedicated to Nasreddin Hoca, a humor master and public philosopher, is organized in Eskisehir every year in the last week of June.

Hello Ugur. I have to say congratulations on the beautiful time exposure capture here. I really love the lighting and especially the shadow effect on the green pathway along the canal edge. It is completely a magical place.

Nedense bazıları fotoğraf hakkında hiç yorum yapmıyor...Sadece gezmekten,deli, dolu hayattan bahsediyor ve üstüne üstelik de ilk yorm yapmayı hüner zannediyor...Teknik detayların güzelliğine değinmemek bence büyük bir hezeyan,yansıyan ışıkların simetrisi ve ISO 1600 de açık diyafram ve yüksek pozlamayla(üstüne üstelik sehpasız) enfes bir görüntü ve renk doygunluğu meydana getirmiş.Memleketinizden güzel bir kare gene,bir gün sırf mavi saat için gideceğim.
Selamlar,

Yağmur

Hello Uğur,

This is a fine dynamic perspective, the curving canal is a great element in composition!
The low light exposure is skillfully done, good colour reproduction and sharp fine details...
An attractive composition with good depth!

Merhaba Ugur,

Ke kadar güzel bir gece tablosu bu, ve kanaldaki yansimalar bilhassa muhtesem görünüyor. Notunuz için de tesekkürler. Nasrettin Hoca'nin buralarla ilgisini hiç bilmezdim. Onu hep Konyali zannerdim.

Selam ve saygilar,
Bülent
