Turkey (Türkiye) Column of Constantine
The Column of Constantine is a monumental column commemorating the dedication of Constantinople by Roman emperor Constantine the Great on 11 May 330 AD. Completed c. 328 AD, it is the oldest Constantinian monument to survive in Istanbul
Photography Tips
Most of the photos were taken with a Sony 16-35mm f/4.0 lens. I tried to use a bird's-eye view to capture the entire column and include plenty of foreground to give the photos depth. I also waited for a couple of people to get as close as possible to the monument so that its size could be appreciated.
