Satellite Jungle

by Helen Betts

Istanbul, Turkey

Taken from the terrace of my hotel in Yenibosna at sunset, when I was working a three-month stint at my newspaper's headquarters. This area is out by the airport and is not one of the prettiest in Istanbul, but I thought the sheer mass of buildings was interesting.

Great shot of this crowded concrete jungle - that's an amazing growth of satellite dishes!

Good eye, Helen. No harm to call this a jungle, that's for sure!

Whoah! Never thought I'd see a neighborhood with so many sattelite dishes... you cloned them in, didn't ya!? ;) Very nice catch!

Pretty amazing capture, Helen!
I just love it. Who says we're not "one world"?
