Darakeh, a photo from Tehran, East

Photographer's Note

Mountain Walk at Darakeh

Summer turns Tehran into a white hot pit. And in much the same way as one places rocks around a fire, the mountains around the city seem to focus all the heat into the centre. Thankfully, they also provide sun-stricken city-dwellers with paths up to cooler climes. Deprived of altogether less wholesome entertainments, one of Tehran’s most popular weekend activities for all ages is “kuh raftan” – going to the mountains.

Hello Sadegh, I simply love the earthly and the old world charm of this splendid composition, the textures, tones and hues. The whole image is superb and a superb representation of the architecture

Hu Sageh,
Very nice picture of that old door. They could tell a lot of stories about what they saw.
