Dagmar Schwelle: Istanbul

Dagmar Schwelle is an Austrian photographer/photojournalist currently based in Germany. She recently produced her first multimedia gallery of her photographs of the wonderful city of Istanbul, entitled 'Metropolis-In Between'. Her interesting photographs are essentially of Istanbul's street life...some hint at the 'in-between' or the dichotmy of Istanbul. From these, I chose the above photograph taken on one of the city's public ferries. By the way, I admire any photographer who has the guts of beheading anyone like that!
