The countries whose nationalities can acquire visa at the airport include Australia, Canada, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, United Kingdom, and the United States.

The only thing you will do to acquire a visum at the airport if you are a national this country is to part with a small fee at the visa counter located just before the passport control area inside the arrival halls. The amount paid varies according to your nationality and is determined by what your country charges the Turkish nationals to enter your country. Remember to consult a travel agent in your country before you travel so what he can update you on the charges, as they frequently change. Don’t forget to bring the exact amount of money in Euros, Dollars or Pound Sterling. Traveler’s cheques, Turkish lira or credit cards are not accepted.

A visum will save you from all this embarrassments. The Turkish government will also need a visum for immigration control. Because of concerns like terrorism, overpopulation and economic, it is important for the country to monitor who enters their country. A visum will also act as identity verification; during the visa application process the host country has the time to verify your identity. It will help them know whether you have a criminal record and your medical background.

Turkey Property : Sores Dogan


Local agents believe that the demand for property in Turkey will continue to boom in 2013, with GYODER (the country’s association of real estate investment companies) estimating that overseas investment in the Turkish property market will rise from the current $2.5 billion a year to around $10 billion per annum over the next few years.
Changes allowing buyers from new countries including those in the Middle East and Russia to buy in Turkey have meant that the Turkish property market has largely
weathered the storm seen throughout the eurozone.

Turkey is a uniquely situated country having one foot in Europe but at the same time being the passage way into Central Asia and the Middle East. Turkey has been the bridge between the all three areas therefore giving it a crucial geostrategic standing and gaining attention from big powers. “For the last half century, Turkey’s geopolitical outlook has been shaped by its military alliance with the West” (Wilkens 3).

Great photography by Sores Dogan






Great photography consists of a few key elements: composition, lighting, and a great moment. Sounds easy, but these three components, in various forms, are what are missing in most photographs you see. To combine the three is the aim of all good photographers, and a time-consuming, laborious, frustrating effort it can be. BUT, when it does come together, when that magic image appears on your screen, not much can touch that feeling.

African elephant, Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe


SORES DOGAN PHOTOGRAPHY..!




“I loved the lighting on this shot, which was taken from the grounds of my camp in Hwange National Park just before sunset. The elephants milled around for some time, mixing with other species that happened by every now and then, such as the impala in the foreground.”

Lose yourself in the moment.

One of the things I love most about street photography is this feeling that I lose all consciousness of myself when out shooting on the streets. I no longer think of myself consciously as an entity– rather, I feel like my body melts into the streets and I become physically and spiritually embedded into the environment that I explore.
I lose consciousness of walking, of breathing, and even of holding my camera. I let my eyes wander– being fascinated by the people living their everyday lives on the streets, and their interactions. Whenever I see something I want to capture– I don’t hesitate. I fluidly approach my subject, and the camera almost takes the photo by itself. Of course I generally follow-up with a smile and a brief hello, and either continue to talk with them, or continue on my way.


One of the philosophies of Zen is that you should lose self-consciousness of yourself, and especially of your own ego. You don’t think of yourself as being great and the center of the world. Rather, you see yourself as something quite insignificant and just like a grain of sand in a desert.
When I am out shooting on the streets, the feeling of getting lost in the “flow” makes me feel much more comfortable shooting in the streets (and is often when I take my best photos). The second I become self-conscious, I find myself (sores dogan) drawing too much attention to myself and my subjects can sense my hesitation and feel less comfortable.
