Great pictures
I came across this site by chance. Your pictures show all aspects of life in Iran and brought back memories for me. Thanks.

Thanks ever so much for all your wonderful photos of Iran! They remind me of my two terrific trips around Iran, one can never "see it all", that is the value of viewing others' photos, I feel so privileged, to have found this Website!!Thanks for sharing!!

An Issue
I think one common issue that I see with the western visitors in Iran is that they all look for what they perceive as norm in Iran. I have also notice this mistake about the Iranian arts including movies and stories, which get recognition in the west. The other side of the art, people, country, that are the future and another reality is hidden to the eyes of the western visitors. I am interested to know why. For example check out

, who is an Iranian portraying Tehran and compare it to this page. Why would one go to Khomeini grave and not more cultural areas of the city. Or why is it interesting to see a Black Veiled woman carrying groceries...as if you don't see that on your own media 24/7 about Iran. I go to Chicago, but rarely I cross McDonalds in the ghetto, Revco in some place with some person shopping bags! do you get my point. It is just interesting to me. All together nice pics. good luck.
