The Colors at Night

One thing I really enjoy about Istanbul is the vivid colors, both man made and natural, visible throughout the city at night. While Seoul was usually awash with neon colors on every street, here in Istanbul the lights vary from harsh neon, to warm and inviting, and back again. Here’s a few of my favorite pictures taken after dark:
A distant mosque at sunset.
A mosque on Barbaros Blvd. as seen from our balcony.
Lanterns for sale in a tea shop in Sultanahmet.
Süleymaniye Mosque at Night
Nice shot! Nick!
Your lantern photo is gorgeous!
Thsnks! I was sitting in a cafe in Sultanahmet around dusk and this little shop was dead ahead. If you’re interested in more photos, check out my Istanbul album.
