Honking paradise on exposure.laszlo.se

Afternoon traffic chaos in Istanbul. Istanbul is a true paradise for anyone who finds car horns to be pleasant music - if you can't stand them, maybe you should go somewhere more quiet, although I found the constant honking pretty amusing. It's like nothing we are used to in Sweden. This picture does however not tell the whole story, I don't think any picture could. You need to be there, on the streets in the middle of everything, to get a real sense of the chaos. I don't exactly know which district this is but it's somewhere outside Ortaköy - it might even be Ortaköy still - it might also be Besiktas or Araköy. The city was so huge and complex so a week was not enough for me too learn the names of all the districts. And the fact that I tend to forget everything I learn doesn't help either :)

lovely pıcture baby :) and the dıstrıct ıs called besıktas just so you know heheh :)
