Istanbul 1996 – a 35mm film retrospective
Found myself in Istanbul with former New Millennium features editor Sarah Keen, during a particularly cold spell, back in February 1996. Now, I had naively imagined that the Republic of Türkiye is a hot country. But not in February, apparently. It was bitterly cold with icy winds all the way from Northern Russia, howling across the partly frozen Bosporus.
This has been posted retrospectively. This images were originally taken and scanned from 35mm film to appear in articles I was writing at the time. A few appeared in the New Millennium ezine. But most were uploaded into the old Coppermine media library and forgotten, So I dug them out of the archives, cleaned them up a bit and reposted them all here.
