Can i change the beautiful “pawn” pic your site has given me to something i want?
If not, could you add a couple of x’s for my eyes and a squiggly line for my mouth.

I’m not after ugly. (Who is) To me , truth leading up to the subject (ugly or disturbing) is what makes beauty that much more intensive.

Dear Chris,

I’m from Turkey and glad to hear your observations and see those photos you’ve taken. You should really upload these photos to Flickr and tag as istanbul.

I love the detail in this entry... I can almost smell the place.
Not everything is ugly Colin, there are a lot of beautiful things in this world, outweighed by the ugly in some places, ugly outweighed by the beauty in others.... truth is in the beauty too...

As an American expat living in Turkey I appreciated this thoughtfully written post, your photographs and your observations.

Much much better...Trading bananas for sweet goo etc. Knowing what just happened or what happened after the pic brings me closer...truthlierist...i just made that up for you.
So the east side equivalent isn’t everywhere, so maybe seek out the local freak shows ; ) Or something along the lines of the link below.
Here is my most fav pic, and stands as the only possibility, thus far, of what i’d allow to be driven into my flesh.

The one responsible for the picture, committed suicide, apparently due to the fact that no one gave a shit after he published.
