EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the stunning beauty of Antalya, Turkey's Southern Turkish Riviera, taken in the 1990s. The image features a backlit boat gracefully cutting through the sparkling, azure waters of the Mediterranean Sea. The Taurus Mountains, with their majestic peaks and hazy outlines, rise in the background, their snow-capped summits touching the clear blue sky. The Olympus Bay, nestled between the mountains and the coast, is bathed in the golden light filtering through the clouds, creating a breathtaking contrast between the dark silhouette of the boat and the luminous landscape. The Alpide Belt, an essential geological feature, is subtly present in the scene, adding a scientific and intriguing element to the otherwise idyllic setting. The serene atmosphere is further enhanced by the calm waters and the gentle ripples created by the boat's passage. The scene is reminiscent of a tranquil moment in time, inviting viewers to imagine the various activities that might be taking place on the boat or along the coastline. This image, taken in 1992, showcases the unique charm and natural splendor of Antalya's marine landscape and its proximity to the Taurus Mountains. The photograph is a testament to the rich cultural and natural heritage of Turkey and serves as a visual reminder of the beauty and allure of the Mediterranean coast.
