Photographer’s Note

Tembris is the ancient name of River Porsuk. The river itself as a god features in ancient Greek myths on Phrygia... Since then this river has given life to the industrial modern town of Eskisehir in mid Turkey, which would otherwise be a very dull place if the river had not passed through the town. The river was also scene to bloody battles of 1920-1922 of Turkish Independence war against invading Greek army, but now a place of tranquility and peace with the battles long forgotten....
