The Bosporous



The Bosphorus filled with fog .... The Bosphorus - it is magical - the colour changes with each day almost hourly sometimes, if you walk by it you can see submarines (yes - whilst pram pushing the twins) beautiful yachts, fishing boats, dolphins and tankers of all sorts - sometimes I wish I paid more attention to twitchers and learnt bird names.....
The colour of the water changes, sometimes like milk, white, sometimes clear as crystal, the deep parts show as different ribbons of reflection on the surface. The Turkish name is Boğaziçi  which translates to throat - the throat that joins the black sea to the Marmara, Aegean and then Mediterranean.
