Photographer's Note
in Turkiye, it is very common to show someone's feelings with his gun. when a football team wins a cup for example we can easily count some 2-3 accidentally died bodies.
it is the same for the wedding ceremonies, even in some ceremonies they kill the bride or the groom accidentally for they were shooting their guns for celebrating the wedding, very dramatic but not rare.
and in this pic, I captured the young boy while he was trying to do what he has seen from his elder brothers, I hope not to remember 'brothers in arms' ...
they're called as 'maganda' in Turkiye, the ones who try to speak with their guns.

Hi Nejat,
This is a good composition with the line of people in the background and the boy in the foreground.

merhaba
türkiyenin acı gerçeklerinden birini ortaya koymak bakımından güzel bi çalışma
fakat bu fotoyu açıp insanların türkiye yi bu şekilde tanıması da hiç hoşumuza gitmez herhalde

Hi Nejat,
a well-composed display of this local custom ... and also a funny note (even though for some people this might be not funny at all).
Unfortunatly, the colors and contrast aren´t very good.

Merhaba Nejat Bey,
Fotoğraflarınızdaki konular gerçekten de değişik ve ilginç. Bir fotomuhabir yaklaşımı ile ele aldığınız bu konular, tartışmalı ya da tartışmasız, görmeye pek de alışık olmadığımız hayat detayları sunuyor. Ve bu sayede fotoğrafçılığın özüne dokunuyorsunuz. Elinize sağlık.
