32 Aug 20 Comment I couldn't see anybody older than 40. As I know, Barack was betting that young people can save America and its legacy. You've created an impressive memory image Stephen and women either find a way or make one:) Aug 10th

74 Aug 20 Reply Yes, that's true; but it was just to make it clear that it's a flag. Thanks Bill. Aug 31st
74 Aug 20 Reply Your constructive recommendations were well-noted, thanks Angela. Aug 17th
74 Aug 20 Reply Thanks for your comment and suggestions Arne. Aug 12th
74 Aug 20 Reply Thanks for your supportive words Stephen. Corona has dramatically stopped us and not easy to go somewhere for travel photography. Luckily, we went to Eskisehir last week, 200 miles from Istanbul for few days and have taken 2K of photos. Days were too hot and humid, can you imagine how difficult it was to work with face mask? Anyway, you can see my regular posts on my Instagram gallery @atakemalsahin Aug 10th
74 Aug 20 Comment You achieved your goal Arne. Your editing process takes big slice of cake:) Rock looks like a granite. Does it have any story? I wondered bnw w/o grains. Thanks for sharing. Aug 10th
74 Aug 20 Comment There's nothing to say more about processing as you did a good job. What is that grey circular stuff in color copy, pollen? I actually prefer colour photos for nature, but this's a well-captured and edited post, congrats Angela. Thanks for sharing. Aug 9th
74 Aug 20 Comment Fortunately, they didn't realize you were taking their pictures. She looks so concentrated on subject and was probably gossiping her bride:) Who was that black-dressed lady, waitress; has made old lady's arm prominent. About editing; it's a well-captured cellphone photo, sharp enough and maybe you could tone down highlights a bit. Thanks for sharing Bill. Aug 9th
74 Aug 20 Comment I enjoyed both bnw and color versions. Great example of moment photography, congrats David. I've never seen humpback whale, but killer whales. I agree with Haru on clarity. Besides, tonal contrast seems a bit high. Color of sea and dark body parts are all well-edited. Meanwhile, have you also tried higher shutter speed, narrow aperture so water drops could be sharper as weather looks bright sunny and there's still ISO to be used in w/o grain limit. Anyway, these are all my personal views and perspective; your work is impressive. Thanks for sharing David. Aug 9th
74 Aug 20 Reply Hi David, you're definitely right, it could be cropped. Thanks. Aug 4th
74 Aug 20 Reply We have been living in Kadikoy for 45 years so everybody knows each other and you can imagine the power of our friendship. But the main reason I know is: He loves our Founding Father Kemal Ataturk so much and my name is "Ata Kemal" and I'm the follower of Ataturk's principles and ideology as well. He has many private problems in life which I cannot tell so there is always sadness in his eyes. He always makes me tearful. I think, the magic word to describe his sad eyes is: Questioning Life. Thanks for your emotional comment Haru.

74 Aug 20 Comment Looks like a cactus flower. Bee is a great surprise, but why did you take ants out? I can imagine why you focused on bee, but less-cropped flower could be better. Besides, leaf venation is not clearly visible. I used PS to re-edit your original copy on attached. Frankly speaking, BNW photos are always cool, impressive and mysterious for portraits, streets and buildings; but nature photos must remain coloured so it means: I enjoyed your original post more. Thanks for sharing Haru. Aug 1st
