Lovely images. Istanbul in B&W is a treat.

Two very nice photos. I like the dark mood of the first image, very mysterious in fact. The second image is quieter with the mirror-like water and the lighter vignetting.

Both interesting, and the location is certainly intriguing (same architect as the mosques?). I preferred the second, though it needs more work and I'm not sure about the light vignetting as it attracts the eye away from the subject.

Thanks for the feedback, Paulo, francois, and John. And yes it's the same architect. This bridge was built almost 500 years ago and still stands as strong as ever. :)
