We met with our married couple from Singapore, Riella and Lee Leonard before the sunrise at the hotel where they stayed and this time we tried something different. First of all, we started photo shooting in the area where the balloons were taking off. Then we continued photo shooting in their hotel, namely Sultan Cave Hotel.

Photo Shoot Day
The balloons stayed in the air for about 1.5 hours. Actually this is a short time to change the place. However, we took some risk, because they wanted to take pictures on the traditional copper Turkish breakfast table, both in the square and on the hotel’s famous terrace. The risk was as follows: in general, all the guests staying in Sultan Cave were going to the same terrace in the morning and wanted to take photos with the balloons in the air at the same point. I think we were pretty lucky. When we went out on the terrace, there were only 2 people in front of us and we were able to start photo shooting in 5 minutes. We could even move to a third location before the landing of the balloons after finishing the photo shooting at the hotel.
We met again after breakfast and after a little rest, afterwards we held our Cappadocia tour. Lee got permission to photo shoot at one of the horse farms. We took our last photo shoot on this farm, namely Museum Horse Renge. As you know, Cappadocia means “a country of beautiful horses” in Persian language. For this reason, there are many horse farms in the region. There are also wild horse herds specific to the region nearby. In that respect, photo shooting of the horse farm becomes more meaningful here.
I wish dear Riella and Lee a healthy and happy life with their children. Yours affectionately
