The market around the New Mosque was just closing up as we walked past, people were stil lingering and getting in a few last purchases while the vendors packed up at the end of what must have been a long day.
I'm still adjusting to the number of small markets that make up every neighborhood here in Istanbul. Don't get me wrong, they have large American style shopping malls to - but when I shop there I forget I'm some place new.
I prefer the little markets when I'm looking for an experience and not just a quick tube of toothpaste and I'm looking forward to discovering more of them now that the weather is getting better and the days longer.

Ho Hey and not feel like singing along.

I really like night shots and need to try them more-and get better at them. My fave is that first shot with the colors framed by the arches.
Hope you do have time to visit those little markets (and take pics to share). Happy day Jamie.
These are wonderful Jamie!
I love the mood and feel to each of these.
I too like the little shops when traveling out of the USA. I like to experience their culture and not feel like 'I'm home'. love the pics...take care.
Oooh, wow...those are brilliant! I love the strong contrasts between the dark shadowy tones, and the bright splashes of colour. And, that first shot with the mosque in the background is masterful!
Though I am sure they are completely different, I used to love going to small farmer markets in France, and the Christmas markets as well! I'm not a fan of shopping malls even here in the US, so I would totally go with you on these expeditions were I in Istanbul.
Great photos and great music!
how amazing.
Wow, looks like fun!
