This was the second entry that placed. I titled it Clock Tower Chaos. It was taken at the famous Izmir Clock Tower. I used a fast shutter setting while panning the camera with the flight path of the birds to get this shot.
I recently decided to enter a local photo contest. I managed to finish in 3rd place in both categories. This was one of the winners. I call it Purring Pergamon (due to location, and well you get the rest). Not sure if you can see them all in this picture, but there are a total of 7 kitties. They look to be all related. I was surprised the shop keeper allowed them on top of his textiles, but business was slow that day.
Below is a list of resources. You can also click on any of the photos to see a larger version (email me if you'd like the full resolution picture - 3 to 8mb).
