During the last two weeks I have been sharing posts from my trip to Turkey with my Facebook friends. The trip was one year ago, so each day I have been sharing the post from one year previous.

As I have been looking back through my posts my mind has wandered to some of the many images that I haven’t shared from the trip.

Tonight I decided to share a few of my favorite images that haven’t been seen before on my blog.

This picture was taken in Antalya. We spotted this guy carrying pretzels on his head and I just had to take a picture. The guy was quickly and confidently walking down the street. He definitely had great balance.

This building was across the street from our hotel in Antalya. I really liked the contrast in the two display windows. On the bottom floor the gowns were very modern and on the top floor they were traditional. I like the colorful gowns on the top floor much better than the ones on the bottom floor.

This was also a common sight in the different cities in Turkey, especially the further west we traveled. Here we have three generations and a large contrast in the way that they are dressed. The very traditional black garment for the grandmother and the more modern clothes for the mother and child. I would say that the way that the mother is dressed is the most modern and that the child has a mix of the old and the new.

Here we have two cute little girls in the back of a farm truck. I really like the colorful painting on the tail gate of the truck.

We had stopped in a small village to ask directions to the tel that we were looking for and also to take some pictures of storks on a platform and an old clay oven.

My friends Arter and Jimmy were having fun talking to the girls.

This picture brought back so many memories of playing with a pinwheel when I was a child this age. I really liked making the wheel spin with a big gust of breath.

This pinwheel is much more colorful and ornate than the ones that we had.

I hope that you enjoyed these images from my trip to Turkey last year. For more images from the trip visit my Turkey page.

Which of these images is your favorite?
