Can Sokagi Musicians
by Helen Betts

Ankara, Turkey

I know this shot has serious problems -- the setting sun was hitting them straight on, there were shadows everywhere else, and I wasn't paying attention to camera settings as I was being hailed by friends up the street so just shot it and ran -- but it's so representative of Turkey that I'm posting it anyway (at least for now). Can Street in the old part of Ankara was closed for a sidewalk sale, and these guys just pulled furniture out of an antique dealer's store to sit on and started playing.

Nice photo Helen. Really sharp, good color, and I like the old phonograph on the table. bottles
