  2. spacebar: Thak you :D

    km: oh Turkey has lots of fish!! There's the black sea, the Aegean and the Mediterranean... miles and miles of coastline. In Istanbul in particular people eat a lot of fish - and they fish everywhere too! You will always see lines of people fishing.
    Of course, there's loads of kebaps too :)

  8. Wow! Now those are brilliant pix...and of living things too :-)

    And, unlike TR, who says there that he prefers your colour pix, I think the B/W are wonderful. Maybe Istanbul has something to do with it but your pix also give the place a sense of another time.

    Ghost - I take little credit. It is all Istanbul. God I love that city.
