Description

Turkey. The spectacular and surreal landscape of Cappadocia makes it one of the most popular destinations to go up in a Hot Air Balloon.

This is my 1st direct post in over a month. Most of you may not be fully aware , I met up with a freak accident in early September that broke my right hand upper arm badly, had to be operated , its been 4 weeks since then, my hand is off the cast now as a metal implant inside my hand is providing the support , I am going through physiotherapy , it doesn't look like I'll be able to hold a camera anytime soon but till then this is the next best thing that I am attempting with my left hand ....

Exif: F Number: 5.6, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/500 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 1000, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 125.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D
