proof that there is alien life on the moon.. the moon in bruges that is..

@ bruges, belgium

clog-pot?! :)
clogs used as flower pots.. love the idea and the implementation..

@ bruges, belgium

nearly post-card picture of the canals in bruges.. if only the sky was a little less gloomy, and a little more blue..

@ bruges, belgium

"knock-knock"..

"who's there?"

"tozgito, that's who!" :)

@ safranbolu, turkey

this is the original hamam sign of the one and only hamam in safranbolu.. check out the number of digits on the phone number! isn't that a laugh!

@ safranbolu, turkey

local creative solution on how to stop cars!

this is just so creative.. they use these as car stoppers on streets, so they don't sneak into the pedestrian area.. shaped just like a typical safranbolu house.. love'm..

@ safranbolu, turkey

for some reason i really relate to this visual.. it might be just a door handle held together with a green band.. but for me it represents something much more, like dual-infinity..

@ yorukkoy, turkey

this used to be one great fish restaurant, but of course like everything that gets popular I have lost all interest.. however, if you are to go to amasra during a weekday than I still recommend it.. on the weekend there is 30 min - 1 hour wait and trust me it ain't worth it

@ amasra, turkey

and yet another interesting street sign I encounter.. it says "wear your barret".. shall do captain!!

@ safranbolu, turkey

this picture pretty much describes the area in general.. buildings, nature, people, they are all rolled into one.. complementing each other beautifully and more importantly peacefully co-existing together..

@ yorukkoy, turkey

the end of civilisation as we know it?!!

no no, just kidding.. its just one corner of a busy street that look's forgotten.. but then if you were to ask the locals, they truly believe that they are forgotten.. hmm sad :(

@ safranbolu, turkey

ok now that is something.. the air-conditioner is being used as an eye.. and if you look carefully there is a hand holding a cell-phone.. basically another object (have no idea what) that's stuck on the building is being used as for the mobile.. if you want to take it to another level, you could say the lamp is representing the third-eye.. but i think that is going a bit too far wouldn't you say.. :)

@ granada, spain

well hello kitty-cat!! was not expecting you here.. more creative use of graffiti.. give me more!

@ granada, spain

and voila the giagantor alhambra palace.. well this is only one little bit of it.. they should put it on the top 10 palaces to visit before you die list.. and might i add, they love their water this lot..

@ granada, spain

this is the upper side of alhambra palace, called "general-life".. have no idea why they call it that.. but it basically was there chill out place during the summer.. the gardens are absolutely amazing..

@ granada, spain

i'm not at all a polito person but love the simplicity of the banner.. has a "che" feel about it..

@ granada, spain

beautifully decorated house exterior.. flowers, pots & pans, and what have you.. "genious i tell you, genious":)

@ granada, spain

an interesting take on street signs.. cool girl about the cross the street, get ready to rumble?!!..

@ granada, spain

the double-decker bike!

you can rent one of these and take it to a spin around the maria-louise park.. it's hard to control but definetely great fun.. don't drink and drive.. trust me..

@ sevilla, spain

meat-packing district?!!..

might as well call it the meat-packing district.. this is your usual restaurant / bar with meat hanging from the walls.. don't know whether to find it estethic or disgusting..

@ sevilla, spain

sevilla on wheels!..

insert coin, take out bike, ride bike, return bike.. great system!!

@ sevilla, spain

all building corners, store fronts, side streets are like this.. its like art is squishing (even) out of the buildings..

@ sevilla, spain

cyclo-estetico..

its like a post-card picture (not the touristy kind though, i'm talking about the cool ones you want to collect)

@ sevilla, spain

gothic in a nice way..

the light fixtures are just amazing.. much like the doors, railings, and what not

@ sevilla, spain

stop global warming.. agreed but unfortunate to see this grafiti,

1- in the remotest of places where noone can see

2- in an area where there is 0 pollution, and maksimum nature..

@ gumusluk/bodrum, turkey

this one is for "my precious" :)..

@bodrum, turkey

the light at the end of the tunnel?

@ bodrum castle, turkey

i don't know why but it looks like this cafe is being operated by ghosts or something.. and i have no idea why i am getting this obsessed with taking pictures of chairs :)

@ bodrum, turkey

back in the old erzurum homes.. doing the "kitlama" with "cay".. wondering where is the snow..

@ erzurum, turkey

pull up a chair and enjoy the mountain sun.. don't forget your salep too :)..

@ kartalkaya, turkey..

kartalkaya was never kinder.. great snow, clear blue skies, and empty slopes..

@ kartalkaya, turkey

what looks like lovely cafes on the beautiful island, is totally inaccessible during the holidays.. so don't make the same mistake, get your timing right..

@ suomenlinna island, finland

the modern art museum, kiasma, is worth while seeing for its zen-like architecture, but can't say the same for the content..

@ kiasma museum, helsinki, finland

a continuation on my craze about signs and graffitis continues on suomenlinna island.. an interesting depiction of the achtung sign..

@ suomenlinna island, finland

an unexpected touch of gothic architecture here and there throughout the city.. gives a feel of med-evil!..

@ helsinki, finland
