Hello Murat,
what an original and impressive building, it surely dominates your frame and the landscape and it's amazing you captured its elaborate details from such a long distance. The complementary elements are interesting, the full frame and the bright colours make an appealing effect. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great evening,
Ourania

Hello Murat,

Wonderful mosque in Ortakoy. I like these two so narrow minarets. Lovely also the windows and columns. O wanted to see it but unfortunately, when I was in istanbul it was all covered for some restoration works :(.

WArm regards Malgo

Hello Murat,
I really like the tight cropping here, which includes no sky, although it seems there is a tiny part of a bridge visible in the uppermost part of the photo. Excellent photo of the mosque. It stands out so well against the background with such excellent clarity and fine, pleasant colours.

Bu caminin binlerce güzel fotoğrafı var
Bu da onlardan biri olmuş.

Yeşilliklerin önünde harika bir kare olmuş.

Tebrikler.
