Sunrise in Istanbul

Early morning view from the apartment we stay at in Istanbul.

It was even better at daytime.

I can only imagine. I bet the streets were crowed with people too.

A masterpiece.

Thanks. I think I will not need a camera at all soon, phones have good cameras these days.

Wait a little, and we'll be able to take photos by eye blinking, and some wireless device will send them directly to our blogs...

And our blogs will be replaced by "public access areas of our brain" by then.

And our brains will be replaced by Google-drive storage.

My memory has already been already replaced by Google search it seems.

When I do some housekeeping and something goes wrong, my left hand automatically tries to cancel it Ctrl+Z

[identity profile] topum.livejournal.com 2016-03-26 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Ha ha! You can also ctrl+x, ctrl+v things instead of carrying them from place to place.

[identity profile] diejacobsleiter.livejournal.com 2016-03-26 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Or Ctrl + to make the dinner portion bigger...

Wow. What a wonderful photo.

Thank you. Phones have good cameras these days.

[identity profile] mallorys-camera.livejournal.com 2016-03-26 10:53 am (UTC)(link)
Which phone camera are you using?

[identity profile] topum.livejournal.com 2016-03-26 10:57 am (UTC)(link)
I took this on Samsung Galaxy 4 and then cut the bottom half of it off.
My proper camera is Sony RX1. It is small enough, fixed lens, mirrorless. Mine is almost always in 'auto' mode.

What a breath-taking view, beautifully captured!

[identity profile] topum.livejournal.com 2016-03-26 05:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, it was a breath-taking view and even more so at daytime. Thank you!

That is truly stunning! Is the dome in the background the Blue Mosque or am I getting confused?

[identity profile] topum.livejournal.com 2016-03-28 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
It is even better at daytime. No, it is not the Blue Mosque, it is a smaller mosque in Cihangir.
