Shooting tips

  • Balıklıgöl: Sunset and evening lights; arcades for reflections.
  • Urfa Castle: Late afternoon for the skyline; watch your step on the path.
  • Göbekli Tepe: Early morning before harsh shadows; details inside the museum.
  • Covered Bazaar & Gümrük Han: Light shafts and spice stalls; ask before close-ups.
  • Harran: Beehive houses and the Great Mosque; morning light is softer.
  • Haleplibahçe Mosaics: Mosaic details; no flash, shoot horizontal.
