Levent - Istanbul Turkey

I wanted to take more photos of the Levent District but the police (security) stopped me when I had my camera and tripod all ready to go. I found it odd since I have had my camera and tripod in mosques without any complaints. It was a pity because I had the most awesome shot of the skyline framed. I should have just taken it and gotten arrested :)

I was a little worried about my film having to go through all those metal detectors at the entrances to shopping malls and transit stations but my photos came out fine.
