These photos were taken from the ferry-boat, that is sailing between Anatolian side and European side. The Bosphorus is like a river between the continents of Europe and Asia. And the city Istanbul takes place on both sides. It is very old and historical city. So, from the Anatolian side to go to the other side, I was in the ferry-boat and I took all these photos by my new camera Canon Power Shot 720, maybe this is not a professional one but I am learning and in the future I wish to have a new one that would be much professional one. Anyway, here are they,


Just a moment for crow!

Galata Tower*


The Bosphorus and The Maiden's Tower**


* Galata Tower: According to the Seyahatname of Ottoman historian and traveller Evliya Çelebi, in circa 1630-1632, Hezarfen Ahmet Çelebi flew as an early aviator using artificial wings for gliding from this tower over the Bosporus to the slopes of Üsküdar on the Anatolian side.
