One of the most significant building in Istanbul is the Haghia Sophia. (Sometimes referred to as the Ayia Sophia) This building has been both  church and a mosque through the years. As Istanbul changed Religion, so did the Haghia Sophia. Today, the building is a museum but it still manages to maintain its ethereal qualities.

In the melee beneath this famous building I ran into many sellers. This man was selling juice and was happy to pose for his picture in the baking mid day heat.

Later, I went down to sea front at Besiktas for something to eat. There on the Bosphorus stood this little boy. I thought this would make a great picture so I quickly and surreptitiously shot a number of images. This was the best one.
