Istanbul. 16 000 000 inhabitants. A city in constant movement.

Either you integrate the movement, or you take a step back as a spectator. Actually, you do not have any choice. Confusing feeling to be in motion against your own will. The street become a funnel. You get sucked in this sea of faceless people. Trying to get a look not to feel alone anymore but the only thing you can attract is an incesant movement of unknown people around you. This paradoxical feeling leads to a confused mind. How to deal with this ? By trying to freeze the time in order to become aware of what is happening around you. Being part of this crowd and not a spectator anymore. Focus on people less than one second to create some form of link. Photographs are the way to catch this moment and to make it last.
