A nighttime view of Istanbul, Turkey
August 9, 2012 - A nighttime view of Istanbul, Turkey. Most of Istanbuls Asian suburbs (right) appear in this night view from the space station, but only about half the area of the city on the European side (left) can be seen. The margins of the metropolitan area are clearly visible at night, more so than in daylight images. The Bosporus strait (also spelled Bosphorus) (center left) famously separates the two halves of the city, and links the small Sea of Marmara (and the Mediterranean Sea to its south) to the Black Sea (indistinguishable in this night view, top right). Major traffic arteries are the brighter lines crossing the metropolitan area, and also mark all the shorelines. The First Bosporus Bridge and Second Bridge (also known as the Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge) can be seen spanning the strait. The brilliant lights of both international airports serving the region also stand out at lower left and lower right

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting nighttime view of Istanbul, Turkey. Taken from space on August 9,2012, it showcases the contrasting beauty between the city's Asian suburbs and its European side. The illuminated margins of this bustling metropolis are clearly visible in this nocturnal image, revealing more details than what can be seen during daylight hours. The iconic Bosporus strait takes center stage in this photograph as it separates the two halves of Istanbul while connecting the Sea of Marmara to the Black Sea. Bright lines representing major traffic arteries crisscross through the metropolitan area, delineating both land and shorelines. Standing tall over these shimmering waters are two prominent bridges - the First Bosporus Bridge and Second Bridge (also known as Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge). Notably, this aerial perspective highlights the brilliance emanating from Istanbul's international airports located at lower left and lower right corners. The city lights create a mesmerizing glow that illuminates every corner of this urban landscape. While admiring this stunning image, one cannot help but marvel at how effortlessly Istanbul blends ancient history with modernity. From its rich cultural heritage to its vibrant city life, there is an undeniable charm that radiates throughout every inch of Turkey's largest city.
