"Dolmabahche Staircase"
© Mark Buckley-Sharp May-97
Interior of the palace in Istanbul, on the grand staircase of the selamlik, which fortunately has a large skylight to show the chandelier to good effect. This is more my personal style where pictures have a high informational content. Standing on the upper landing allows a level shot viewing both downwards and upwards without distorted verticals. Chemical print from negative.
