Lean on Me

In the middle of a city street, two figures stop time with a quiet embrace. Cars wait, strangers pass, but they remain still. I photographed this moment to reveal how love and vulnerability create a private refuge, even within the restless pulse of urban life.

About Artist

Alp Turgut

Alp works in cinematic black and white street and documentary photography, focusing on human presence and quiet narratives within everyday life. Each day, he seeks moments that often go unnoticed; scenes where time seems to pause and reality becomes cinematic. His work invites the viewer to slow down, spend time with the image, and get lost within the frame.
