I went onto Google maps the other day to see if there were driving directions from our house to Kalkan (there weren''t) and I noticed a track from behind the houses at Akbel, the side where they have the Sunday market. The track went past a cluster of houses and seemed to peter out near a building, poss in the vicinity of the new road. Anyone have any further knowledge of this track?
How come you never see any people on google maps? I know it''s time lapse photography but someone must have been standing around!

I think they edit out the people for security reasons.....

For Kalkan, I think you''ll find the time lapse is 2+ years!

The time lapse must be at least 5 years, our villa build in 2003/4 is still an empty plot on Google. I think the reason you cannot see people is that the Kalkan pictures are pretty low resolution, if you look at pictures of the UK you can see people - try a shopping St. or outside a railway station.

Well that blows my theory of someone cloning them all out in Photoshop!
