Slaughterhouse, a photo from Istanbul, Marmara

Photographer's Note

This nice building at the shore of Istanbul's Golden Horn was been built in 1930 and served untill early 2000 as the slaughterhouse of Istanbul.
It was been fully renovated in the year 2003 and serves since than as an art gallery for art exhibitions.
The red boats (kayiks) in the lower part are imitations of old Ottoman boats, which transoported people from one side to the other side of the Golden Horn, at times where there was no bridge crossing it. Nowadays they are 3 bridges over the Golden Horn. And those nice kayiks serves as a turistical attraction.

Hello Mesut,
The former slaughterhouse is a beautiful building with a wonderful design and colours. It sounds like a great idea to convert it into an art gallery. The red tarpaulins of the boats brighten the foreground. The entire photo is colourful and very attractive with a perfectly managed light.
Kind regards,
Gert

Bonjour Mesut,

Il est vraiment trиs beau cet abattoir d'Istambul. On pourrait croire que c'est une йglise avec ses deux clochers. Ses couleurs aussi sont belles et les barques devant aussi.

Amicalement

Hello Mesut,
This is a really good picture, it's very sharp and the colours are so vivid and well-saturated. The blue water and sky contrast so well with the red and yellow tones, which get reflected nicely in the small waves too.

Who would guess that it is the former slaughter house. it look more like a palace. Splendid idea to convert as to the art gallery. Beautiful red boats. The whole composition is nice and colourful.

Gunaydin Mesut,
Good idea that it is no longer a sloughterhouse, nicely renovated and now it is even attractive as a gallery. The scene is wonderful, the red covered boats added a nice contrasting color, and the picture was taken from a fair distant pointr to have a wide scope over the place.
Regards,
Ike

Hi Mesut,

The composition is well divided, the sky, the buildings with the boats and the water. The point of view is showing the details of the buildings and of the boats. It is clear and precise. Have a nice day.
