W/NW - Photos taken on the street

I really like this one which I shot a few days back. More to do with the pretty young subject than any photographic skills I am afraid.

I saw it in my computer's folder from this batch and belatedly realised it had promise even though it has lots of reflections. It was also badly over exposed. Here's a nice trick for those of who who use Photoshop and similar (but not Lightroom which does not support layers). Take the photo and duplicate the layer. Then change the blending mode of the duplicate layer to "multiply". Immediately the photo becomes much darker. If its too dark, use the % slider to back off on the opacity a bit. Flatten the image layers. Done.

Taksim Square, Istanbul on April 24, 2013, the anniversary of the Armenian genocide. There was a strong police presence in the square for the expected demonstration, but only a handful of protestors showed up.

Be Careful if you still there! The latest report in the NY Times is they are roughing up foreigners and media.
