Wild flower ( Gazania)

Cappadocia
Geographic events formed Peribacaları (fairy chimneys), during the historical period.
The name was traditionally used in Christian sources throughout history and is still widely used as an international tourism concept to define a region of exceptional natural wonders characterized by fairy chimneys (image below) and a unique historical and cultural heritage. The term, as used in tourism, roughly corresponds to present-day NevÅŸehir Province of Turkey.

Duracell battery show
Last sunday there was a show of Duracell batteries on the street. They prepared two stands for remote control cars. One was for bigger cars the other for small.
People were playing with the cars and Duracell showed that their batteries last much longer.
Actually it is true, I had tested in my sons remote control cars. :))
But I prefer using rechargable batteries.

I should sell my Nikon Fa. This small point and shoot camera (Canon a590 is) takes better photos. :)
The people who still shoots film will be angry. :)
Weather was cold in an April day.
Street musician
I saw a street musician on the street who was playing saxophone. Generally they play guitar or etc.
He was playing good and have collected a few bucks in the box.
Red tulips and a tree
On the pavement I saw these red tulips around the tree.
Now it is tulip season and you can see them everywhere.
I put a tag of "street photography" . This photo was taken also on the street but actually hard to call this a street photo. It is a snapshot :)
