Stuck in traffic near Istanbul

[Guest post by Yerindeçizer in Istanbul, Turkey] Because of my job, I spend most of my time on the road. A few days ago, as I travelled on the D-100 near Istanbul, the police blocked the way because of a massive accident. While we were waiting at the car, I found my sketchbook and tried to record the scene. It took almost an hour to reopen the road, and in that time I finished my sketch. Luckily, there were no serious injuries or deaths in the accident – that also made me happy that day.
