The Bosphorus Strait - A Majestic View from Above
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this breathtaking aerial shot captured by photographer Murad Sezer, the iconic Bosphorus strait is showcased in all its grandeur. Taken through the window of a passenger aircraft soaring over Istanbul, Turkey on April 24,2018, this image offers a unique perspective of one of the world's most significant waterways. The photograph reveals an indistinct yet mesmerizing landscape as the distant landforms blend harmoniously with the azure waters of the strait. The creative use of composition and lighting highlights both the natural beauty and man-made structures that line its shores. With no people present in this frame, it allows us to focus solely on nature's magnificence. The absence of any commercial activity reinforces our connection to Earth's environment and reminds us to appreciate its untouched splendor. As we gaze at this scene, we are reminded of how small we are compared to Mother Nature's wonders. The flight itself becomes an opportunity for introspection as passengers witness firsthand the atmospheric conditions and ever-changing weather patterns that shape our planet. Murad Sezer has skillfully captured not just a photograph but also a moment frozen in time—a testament to human curiosity and exploration. This image serves as a reminder that even from great heights, there is always something awe-inspiring waiting to be discovered right outside our windows.
