Martin, John, and myself flew to Antalya, Turkey on the Sunday prior to the Wednesday afternoon eclipse.

For more pictures, see the Eclipse gallery.

Our viewing site and the central line

We were 3.9 km SE of the central line.

^*House finches, common feeder birds in Eastern North America, are widely affected by finch eye, a disease which leads to blindness and death. Not that we were ever suggesting we might go blind from the eclipse. The raki would do that to us instead.
