20110803 Yeni Camii

The New Mosque (Yeni Camii), formerly the Valide Sultan Mosque, near the southern tip of the Galata Bridge, in Istanbul, Türkiye (nee Turkey).

The mid-17th Century mosque sits at the edge of the Golden Horn, and its design is partly based on that of the Blue Mosque. The tower on the right hand side of the shot is not the Galata tower, it is the Beyazıt Tower, an early 19th century fire watchtower, on the campus of Istanbul University.

Taken with my Nikon D40, fitted with a Tamron 70-300mm F4/5.6 DI LD (Nikon AFS) lens and processed in GIMP and Photoscape.
