TITLE: Incredible India

I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to shoot some unforgettable images on my recent trip to so called “Golden Triangle” - one of the most iconic destinations of India.

In Varanasi, I captured the sacred rituals and spiritual traditions of this ancient city, which is considered one of the holiest places in India. From the colorful ghats lining the banks of the Ganges to the winding lanes of the old city, Varanasi offered a wealth of photographic opportunities.

In Jaipur, known as the "Pink City," I witnessed the famous Holi Festival as well as photographing the stunning architecture of the city's palaces, forts, and temples.

In Agra, my focus was on one of the world's most iconic landmarks - the Taj Mahal. This stunning marble mausoleum is a symbol of love and a testament to the beauty and craftsmanship of Mughal architecture. But Agra is much more than just the Taj - you could also photograph the historic Agra Fort, the bustling bazaars of the old city, and the tranquil gardens of the Mehtab Bagh.

Finally, in Delhi, I captured the energy and diversity of India's capital city. From the grandeur of the Red Fort to the colorful chaos of Chandni Chowk, Delhi offers a wealth of photographic opportunities.

Overall, my photo travel to Golden Triangle showcased the stunning architecture, vibrant culture, and rich history of India.

I am a self-taught street photographer out of Istanbul who's been shooting for years. It was started years ago with a very basic analogue camera as a mere hobby, but has eventually turned into a passion. I mainly shoot in B&W, love to be on the streets and love to catch people in their sincerest moments.

Having been born and raised in Istanbul gave me the opportunity to pursue my photography with more fervour, providing a culturally mixed and vibrant environment and being an avid traveller gave me the additional chance to be able to shoot different cities, different cultures and different people at the same time; as Graciela Iturbide once said "In the end, photography for me is just an excuse to get to know the world."

I was deeply inspired by Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Doisneau, Vivian Meier, Josef Koudelka, Martin Munkacsi, Fan Ho, Saul Leiter, Elliott Erwitt, Peter Lindberg, Mary Ellen Mark, Ara Güler, Sebastiao Salgado and on and on and on….
