A lady walking through a mosque in a bustling area of Istanbul, August 11, 2010. At night, everything changes as Istanbul’s neighborhoods fill with Turkey’s pious. Splashing parched tongues with frozen mineral water or grazing on violently purple cotton candy and McDonald’s takeaways, religious locals and visiting Arab and Iranian tourists alike relax in the shadow of the Blue Mosque and at crowd-pleasing performances organized by Istanbul municipality.
