elif araf yalim photography

The long weekend of noshing and chocolate-eating is drawing to a close, making it the perfect time to flick through some whimsical snaps and remember that there are plenty more peaceful days to come.

These beauties spring from the lens of Turkey-based photographer Elif Araf Yalim, and manage to fill us with a soothing sense of stillness, while also making us crave a country-bound trip out of town. Pop another pot of tea on the stove to brew, and have a wander through her pics over here.
