I here present digital pictures that I took during a June 2006 visit to Trabzon, together with pictures I took at an earlier date, scanned from slides. I always find if very hard to get the colours right, sometimes I add some contrast to make pictures clearer. It may well be that, when I have more time, I will change some pictures. I will add some comments, sort the pictures and such things when I am finished editing and adding more Trabzon 2006 pictures. Hag(h)ia Sophia is an alternative spelling that I also use. It means Holy Wisdom.

AYASOFYA MÜZESİ
Bu galeride, Trabzon’a Haziran 2006’da yaptığım bir ziyarette çektiğim dijital resimlerle beraber daha önceki bir tarihe ait filmlerden bastığım resimleri gösteriyorum. Doğru renkleri yakalamak her zaman zor oluyor; bazen resimleri netleştirmek için kontrast ekliyorum. Şimdilik böyle kalabilirler; zamanım olduğunda bazı resimleri değiştireceğim. Trabzon 2006 resimlerini düzeltip galeriye eklemeyi bitirdiğimde, resimleri düzenleyip onlara açıklama ekleyeceğim. Hag(h)ia Sophia burası için kullanılan (beim de kullandığım)alternatif bir isim. Kutsal Akıl anlamına geliyor.
Türkçe çeviri: Melek Emir. Katkılarından dolayı teşekkür ederim.

I think Dick Osseman has done a great job, both for Turks & Greeks, by taking those pictures and publising in the web, showing some stages of human history..but it should not be used as an areana to encourage fighting ..and promote hatrad..unfortunately it is not the fault of Dick..but it is the fault of others who did not understand Dick..with ther own Crusaded minds..

It was the "try to be more honest" that annoyed me. Still does.

Not intending to turn this into a political issue, and Anna may not have been turned away herself, but what we now know as Greece was once a civilization that extended far beyond its current borders, to areas including modern day Trabzon. Regardless, your site and photography are excellent. Nick

Dear Anna, I am pretty honest, and you make a mistake. I am Dutch, so I did not turn "you" away (are you 86 years of age or over? If not, the "us" you use is not valid). Please address your wrath elsewhere. And: I do doubt if the current Greeks can be considered to be the "natural owners" of frescoes that were created many hundreds of years ago, many hundreds of kilometres from what we now know as "Greece". And: I seem to recall that there was some sort of invasion by "Greece" after the hostilities of WW I. I suppose that was because "you" wanted to spread peace and wisdom? Or was it just getting back what belonged to you, "naturally"? Well, many thanks, it caused much destruction and suffering.

Nice work!Nice fotos! But try to be more honest and start mention Greeks, the natural owners of these creatures.Anyway its been only 85 years since you turned us away...
