The first two are good....the last is breathtaking!

I'll add that I think a tighter crop (top and bottom) would make the last one even better.

Is that the Blue Mosque on the left in that photo? I have some old film images of the Blue Mosque and Istanbul from the mid-80's. I was in the Navy and we pulled into the shipyards in Golcuk (?). I still tell people to this day that I had the best pizza ever in Turkey...

Yes thats Blue Mosque. Last week I had really quick and busy week. I had chance to meet user of PentaxForums. Bactman is his username. I met them on Monday and we visited Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace and Kucuk Ayasofya.I was with them most of the time. Its really cool to see users of PF from all over the world.
Yesterday we visited Camlica and Kadikoy. When we took ferrie from Kadikoy to Kabatas we took 2 photos. Tulip been taken in Camlica.In Kadikoy we ate ISKENDER.

Very nice work, especially the last image. But the second image looks like it was overprocessed as the sky looks like frosted glass on my screen. I guess you did that to bring out the separation of clouds and light. A fine image image nonetheless.
