Let me tell you what has hurt and upset me the most. Throughout my life, I have been a relentless advocate for justice, rights, law, and ethical behavior. That’s why I became a lawyer. During my four years in NFT, @zachlipp and @sunnysangwan were the closest witnesses to the fact that I always spoke the truth, no matter the cost. And for that, I even had serious arguments with them when necessary. While I am known as an activist, an artist, and a lawyer—someone who would never hesitate to speak the truth even if it cost her everything—here, @jacek accused me of being a "farmer." That is something I just cannot accept. ITAP

Being part of this community is not easy. No matter how world-renowned you are or how serious your work is, this is an environment where only those with financial means can truly exist and grow. Despite thismany others have resisted to remain here. That’s why many newcomers eventually leave. Months ago, I told some people, "You are doing tip4tip, don't do it—focus on building community relationships." They are not banned, but I am. You accused us of receiving money out of thin air. That is not true. We actually invest money into this platform, and there should be a return on that investment. Moreover, receiving tips from the community is not easy. This is exactly why we stay active and put in the effort. We are trying to make this community attractive and sustainable. If people do not trust your project and you cannot bring in new members, you will not be able to move forward and will eventually disappear. Instead of banning farmers, you have blocked those who were trying to bring quality to this platform

I live in Turkey and complain about lawlessness, the manipulation of written laws according to the arbitrary decisions of the ruling power, and the disregard for Constitutional Court rulings. I accuse the government of dictatorship. Dictatorship is the name of a one-man regime where rules are not absolute and can change on a whim. The place we once called a safe haven, where we escaped from all the ugliness of the world to find peace, has turned into hell precisely because of this. This is why the rule of law is important. Without law, there is neither trust nor order

Are you sure @jacek ? I @hind @manuwilliams @mikkolagerstedt @joellelb @ricardotakamura @maheshb @victoresteves.eth @jenson @korayozpalamutcu @nasimghanizade @ozlem we all banned ? All these accounts are the ones who create quality content here. Is this a world we dream here? There can be no crime and punishment without law. This is the basis of universal law. Please remember this

Without tipping, no one would stay here—that’s certain. But at the same time, it seems nearly impossible for newcomers to survive in the system because, unfortunately, most people can only receive as much as they give. This dynamic helps big accounts grow while preventing smaller ones from expanding. From my very first day here, I’ve pointed out that a system where the big ones don’t support the small is doomed to collapse. I honestly don’t know what the solution is @jacek but I am sure you should consider everything so well before doing something.

I see a lot of nude photography on @rodeodotclub , where the female body is displayed like a mere object, often for the sake of gaining attention. Let me give you a tip: if a nude photograph features a body that defies today’s imposed beauty standards yet still holds artistic and photographic value, then it is a good nude photograph. Otherwise, it is nothing more than the objectification of the female body for profit. And it is certainly not art. @angelikakollin is a great example who use women nudity in an artistic way.

The image captures a split-second scene from my visit to the village of Hörmetçi in Kayseri, Turkey, where I attempted to photograph the wild Yılkı horses. On that day, the farm owner, Uncle Ali, did not bring the horses to the usual open field for photographers. Although initially disappointed, I stayed alert, observing my surroundings for any unique moments to capture. When a farmhand struggled to catch a chosen horse from the herd amidst thick dust, I seized the chance and clicked the shutter just as the dust cleared for a magical instant. This experience reminded me that even disappointing moments can hold extraordinary opportunities, if we’re open to embracing them Awarded in the Px Paris Photo Prize, judged by renowned photographer Steve McCurry, and the IPA International Photography Awards, this photo has been exhibited in various countries and published on official accounts of National Geographic YS and National Geographic Turkey

What I love about FC is that it’s a sterile world, far away from the terrifying national and global news. Everything feels pleasant here. It’s like my peaceful, love-filled sanctuary.

Last year, I visited the carpet fields in Antalya twice and took many different photos. This was absolutely my favorite one.
