Flip-Book Venuses

We recently made a trip to the Istanbul Archeology Museum, which is usually one of my favorites but now it's being renovated. There was a new exhibit showing 19th century research of materials from their collection; I suppose it was a consolation exhibit to make up for all of the closed galleries. In any case, the images above are crying out to be made a flip-book, Terry Gilliam style, of course.

My Favorite Plastic Junk Shop

It's kinda awful how much plastic junk there is in this shop.

How Does the Third Bridge Grow?


I think I can see the beginning of suspension lines...


Youth Day (April 23)

Here is the little square down by the Sarıyer coast. It's all gussied up in honor of Youth Day. The various political parties are making a patriotic display here. Nothing honors the youth more than a political medallion!
