    Travel Photography | Istanbul | Istiklal Caddesi | Life On The Street

    © 2009 Wazari Wazir | Istanbul Turkey | Istiklal Caddesi This is not my latest picture, but a photograph taken last year, November 2009 at Istiklal Caddesi. Located in the Beyoğlu district in the modern part of Istanbul, Istiklal Caddesi (Independence Street) is the most famous pedestrian street in Istanbul. This three kilometer long avenue stretches from Taksim Square to Tünel, the world’s second-oldest subway. This place is visited by nearly 3 million people in a single day over the course of weekends. I’ve already share this very same picture in this blog before but in colors, back then I don’t have the time to play around with different kind of editing…

Portrait photography is all about capturing the character of the people being photograph the most.

    Travel Photography | Agra | Children of Heaven

    Taj Ganj area is full of photo opportunity, especially if you like capturing human interest other than Taj Mahal, I took this picture just outside my hotel, Saii Palace Hotel.

This children are quite different from normal children that we met in this area, they don’t ask us anything, doesn’t beg for money or candy but we gave them candy anyway because they are too cute and innocent looking children. This is not the main street in Taj Ganj area, the main street is on…

    Travel Photography | Taj Mahal Seven Wonders of The World

    This is the final part of our Indian Journey, after this I will still share my India picture here but will not concentrate about itinerary but just about the place and photograph.

We want to rush out to get to our hotel even though we haven’t booked any hotel just yet. During our journey from Jaipur The Pink…
