Weekly Photo Challenge – Reward
Last year my daughter and I spent three weeks travelling around Turkey. We had some amazing experiences – one of the most memorable being a balloon flight over Cappadocia. As the balloons take off just on dawn we had to be up and ready to leave before 5am. Our Reward? See for yourself.
Weekly Photo Challenge – Depth
The photo I’ve selected for this week’s theme of Depth was taken at the Basilica Cistern, located beneath the city of Istanbul.

Weekly Photo Challenge – Express Yourself

Weekly Photo Challenge – Warmth

Weekly Photo Challenge – Yellow
This is my first entry for the weekly photo challenge. The theme for this week is Yellow. I saw these old Kodak signs all over Italy. This one was in Venice.
