Galata Tower and Bosphorus Ferries: Istanbul's Skyline

A panoramic, photorealistic view of Istanbul featuring the Galata Tower perched on its hillside overlooking the Bosphorus Strait. In the foreground, a row of colorful waterfront houses and balconies lines the shore, with ferries gliding across the glittering water in both directions. The Galata Tower's ancient stone facade stands tall as warm golden-hour light bathes the scene, creating shimmering reflections on rippling blue-green water. The distant skyline blends historic mosques and modern silhouettes, while gulls circle overhead and a gentle atmospheric haze adds depth. The image is a wide-angle composition, ultra-detailed, 8k quality, with vibrant blues, teals, golds, and terracotta hues, cinematic lighting, and crisp focus from foreground to background.
