Playing cards at Gümrük Hani Photo

Photographer’s Note

One of the fun of a visit at Sanli Urfa is a stroll in the old town where, in hidden courtyards of the ancient bazaar, you can discover local people playing cards or domino, wearing the colourful kurdish scarves.

Bonsoir Luca,

C'est une belle scène de vie locale et quotidienne ou le sérieux semble de rigueur.

Hello Luca,
A fine scene of the men playing cads with visible passion. Your wide angle and a good popoint of view allowed you to find a perfect perspective o nth scene.
Well done.
Regards,
Paul

Hello Luca,
A fine POV, where you sneek in between the men and watch their cards. They are nicely grouped around the table, and there is an interesting similar crowd filling the background. A bit of the ancient architecture is also visible to enhance the exotic effect.
Regards,
Gert

Very nice photo Luca; you caught the man writing down the points. Everyone around you is oblivious to your presence. Nice shot or daily life.
Best,
Petek

Hello Luca,

What a great action shot this is! I love how all the elements in the picture seem to point towards the pencil in the hand of the man keeping the score. And even if they don't (like the man sitting in the background), they're great.

After my summer break away from computers, it's great to go through your recent uploads. Thanks again for sharing.

Benny
