The Blue Mosque

The Blue Mosque

I saw this scene of Istanbul from a bus window.
I threw the camera up and shot.
Unfortunately I also got lots of reflections from the bus window but I liked the scene so gave it this vintage look to hide the reflections.
Hope you like it.

    Beautiful shot! Love the treatment! Looks like an old postcard!!
    Makes me sad though, coz I was going to go to Istanbul on my trip to Europe, but because of all the bombings over there, we are not allowed to go anymore :( And it was the place I most wanted to see!!
    Any way, great pic! And thanks for the comment and fav ;)
