Ayia Sophia Istanbul

Friday Prayers at the Blue Mosque, Istanbul, Turkey

It’s took a while but I have finally managed to get my limited editions on the website. Each one is limited to 50. I will sign and number them both on the print itself and on the matt. I decided that 18 inches by 12 inches or thereabouts was probably the best way to go. Each print is matted on white, acid-free board and then overmatted with 4-ply bevel-cut overmat. I am using 20 x 24 inch matts. To have a look at the gallery click on the link below. I have tried to include photographic images from Hong Kong, Rio De Janeiro, Istanbul, Morocco and more.

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.
