Colors of Istanbul


The Tulip Festival is on in Istanbul. In Holland in the Spring you you see thousands of tulips, Millions if you go out to the countryside, however, Tulips came from Turkey. Who knows where they got them but Istanbul was always at the center of the trade routes. This time each year Tulips, as in Amsterdam, are everywhere in Istanbul.

  1. Hi Jim,

    John Williams (Beth Shumway's cousin)writing. Shelly sent me a link to your blog. It sounds like you are on one heck of a trip! I've been playing with landscape photography a bit (see www.tranquilviews.com), and so I'm enjoying your great photos. Very nice.

    Cheers!
