Images must be high resolution (at least 300 dpi at 8” x 10”, or 1 MB or larger) and must not be in print elsewhere. Please include a short description of the scene/ event, as well as your name, brief biodata and the type of camera used, to locallens@afsa.org. A spring vacation to Antalya, Turkey, in April 2017 and many visits to the various ruins have inspired a budding photographer. Nicholas Dinoia, age 9, took over the family camera and is captured shoot- ing the columned street that runs east to west in the ancient city of Perga. Perga is perhaps one of the most impressive sites in the area because it is in excellent condition. Among other things, the city includes a nymphaeum, baths, necropolis, stadium and theater. While some parts of the complex are still under excavation or renovation, the areas available to be viewed should not be missed when visiting this region. n Jen Dinoia is the spouse of the senior regional security officer to Mission Turkey, Peter Dinoia. She took this photo with an iPhone 5, as her Canon was already in use.
