Many Things Have Chanced

Too much time was passed that I haven't post here. I have excuses, lots of things have changed not only in my life but also in my country. I got married and moved a new flat. At the same period an uprising occurred because of a park (Gezi Park, which is so close to our home and darkroom). A generation claimed their environment, their honour and their future. It spread all over the country. Unfortunately five people were death during the clashes. You can reach some information at wikipedia as well a google search.
As a result of these,  I couldn't post anything for a while. I just don't want to write too much and want to share some photos taken in the Gezi Park during protests.

Here is the first one:


During the protest forums were made and people discussed about the situation of the resistance. Park was full with every generation especially young and children.

Clashes around the Gezi Park were continued during the nights and people were exhausted after these rigorous  clashes. The man at the poster is Ethem Sarısülük who was death at Ankara during the protests. He was shot in the head by a police officer and he was at his 26.

People occupied the park and set up their tents. Lots of people start to live in the park.
