A smile in any culture is the most pure form of sincerity. Excellent shots!

Excellent capture. The best thing about a simple shot like this with one subject is that it can be looked at over and over again…with new impressions.

My favourite camping experience has to be the time I camped in the Sahara in Southern Libya with the milky way keeping us company at night.

Comment on Turkey – a few of my favourite places by retrotraveller

Hi Tom. There are some pretty awesome places in Turkey. Ephesus was pretty busy, but a must see I think.

When I was in Istanbul they were doing some work on Aya Sofya and there was a huge scaffolding rig in the middle but still amazing place.

I’ve been to Gaziantep, but not the other places you mentioned… I do remember having some pretty good baklava there though!

Great choices! I LOVED Ephesus. I never went inside the Aya Sofya (that queue…THAT QUEUE!) but it looked astonishing from the outside. I considered going to Hasankeyf and Nemrut Dagi on my visit, but never made it there. Malatya, Ayvalik and Fethiye were gorgeous (skip Gaziantep!). I want to get to Pattara on my next Turkey trip, for some serious beach time!
