TITLE: humpback lady

This is a photo of an old lady I saw at the AKM in Taksim, standing in the ticket line. Her physical appearance immediately caught my attention, but it was her face and her eyes that truly struck me. There was something in her gaze , something old, distant, and deeply removed from my own time. It made me feel a quiet kind of sadness.

I took out my camera and captured this image, trying to hold on to the emotion I felt in that first moment , to preserve the silent story I saw in her glance.
