EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the tranquil moment of an old Turkish man taking a peaceful siesta on the doorstep of a humble stone house in the picturesque village of Avenos, Cappadocia, Turkey. Dressed in a traditional cloth cap, the man's weathered features and creased face tell the story of a life well-lived. The warm sunlight filters through the archway, casting a gentle glow on the scene, as the man's peaceful slumber is interrupted only by the occasional passing of a horse-drawn cart or the soft rustle of the wind. The image transports us back to the 1980s, a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of rest and relaxation were cherished. The man's contented expression and the serene atmosphere of the scene invite us to take a moment to appreciate the beauty of a quiet moment in time. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the universal human need for rest and the simple joys of a peaceful siesta.
