In September last year, we spent a couple of days in Istanbul. It was a massive sensorial experience from every aspect: watching the diverse people walking in the streets, admiring ancient buildings such as Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque, smelling the spices blending in the bazaars, hearing the call to prayer many times during the day coming out of the minarets, feeling the sun bronzing the skin, sipping tea next to a pistachio baklava, and enjoying a grilled sea bass at a nice restaurant in the Sultanahmet area. As you can imagine, there are plenty of mosques in Istanbul. Every day when we took the tram to the city center, we passed by the Eminönü station and stared at the new mosque. One evening after dinner, I had the chance to get a nice shot of this mosque from the other side of the Galata Bridge using a long exposure.
