Mevlana/Whirling Dervishes

These are photos I took while visiting the Mevlana, better known as the Whirling Dervishes, in Konya back in late December. I will post more describing them in better detail, but the pictures show a lot of what we saw - men wearing these big white dresses and little red caps who can spin for up to 20 or 30 minutes at a time, never erring from their paths, never getting dizzy, and always spinning perfectly harmoniously. It's a beautiful sight to see that pictures can't really capture. Anyone who is my Facebook friend should take a look at the video I posted awhile ago of them!
