Running From The Wave

Istanbul. The intersection of east and west. The meeting point of different cultures and people. Always beautiful, always exciting. The city where I live. These photos are about what I saw. These photos are everything about my Istanbul. I'm Tayip Basak. I live in Istanbul, Turkey. I have been taking street photos and documentary photos for many years. I love taking pictures of people. That's why I try to keep the emotion in the foreground in my photos. For me, human first and foremost.
