Yes,as you see it's a foot,we have many same thing in each city,some foot or hand...in the walls!very bigger than
a normal body!
Some old people believe that's for holy person or Emam!
I took this picture in Tekieh Moaven ol-Molk,In Kermanshah province,Kermanshah is one of the ancient cities of Iran
and it's situated in 47° 4´ east longitude and 34° 18´ north latitude located in the middle of the
western part of Iran and is the center of Kermanshahan Province.
As it is situated between two cold and warm regions enjoys a moderate climate.
Kermanshah has a moderate and mountainous climate. It rains most in winter and is
moderately warm in summer. The annual rainfall is 300-500 mm. The average temperature
in the hottest months is above 22° C.
Because of the natural circumstances, this city is situated on the slopes of Koh-e Sefid,
which is the most famous mountain in the suburb of Kemanshah. The length of this city is
more than 10 km. Which runs alongside Sarab Rive and Valley. The height of Kermanshah city
is 1420 m. above sea level
I have a workshope if you like to see the scale! |

Interesting detail... after seeing the WS i wonder how he got his foot up there ! : ) Its lacking in focus but i guess this is because you used part of the WS photo, which is very sharp. I think i prefer the WS, as the tiles around it are very nice, if the person (is it you?) was not looking at the camera, ie in a more natural pose it would have been very good. Well done, and great note.
Strange and also interesting, as what each pay is really single for the habits or the beliefs, the description of the climate is very interesting for me which likes the weather.

That'a a very interesting shot - and story. And thanks for the workshop to show the scale. It actually also contains some nice mosaic work. But the footprint on its own does have a special magic which you did well in sharing.
