Mehmet Akin is doctor/photographer from Turkey, Izmir. He’s 50 years old and as I said before, taking photos isn’t his first vocation, but nevertheless he does it amazingly well. His basic muse and inspiration is his homeland, Turkey with its breathtaking landscapes and its wonderful people. Here you can have a look at some samples of the portraits that he has taken of old people in his country. They are very moving and you can see the mark of time on their faces. It’s almost like every face is telling his own story and testifying that human destiny (kismet) is a thing greater than human himself.
