The Stone Houses of Foça

Foça, a small fishing village on the Aegean that is one of my favorite places in Turkey, used to be a Greek town. It is full of old stone houses -- many in disrepair but with some being renovated -- left over from that era. I had an extremely difficult time with the distortion inherent in the images, so please just enjoy the houses and forget about the lines :-).
