About this release

Au quatrième jour à Istanbul, la plupart des promenades commençaient à se ressembler.

C'était un après-midi chaud, et je me suis retrouvé à laisser derrière moi les rues touristiques animées à la recherche de quartiers plus calmes qui semblaient plus habités.

Rien dans cette rue ne s'était annoncé à l'avance.

Puis, en un seul instant, la composition, la lumière et une silhouette de passage se sont alignées.

J'ai pris une photo à la volée, et presque immédiatement le moment a disparu alors que la silhouette continuait son chemin.

J'ai continué à marcher.

The Journey

"By the fourth day in Istanbul, the walking had begun to blur.

In Balat, away from the busier streets, I found myself in a residential lane that offered no obvious reason to stop.

Then the ordinary arrangement shifted. I made one frame from the hip, and the moment passed before it could become deliberate."

— Mitchell Lacey
