Salam oleykum fellows!
Doing a special set for UKGSer by posing some of b&w and infrared images from Iran and Turkey expedition from some films that i got recovered after the crash in Poland. I'll be not sorting them anyhow, just different pictures on different places...
Some Persian architecture:
The Tehran symbol - Azadi building that deserves the pic on every side. It's magnificent. And i feel very sorry for it - the garden around it with fountains destroyes it with humidity. And Tehran has no plans to recover it soon time...
A true arabic high-tec in building.
There's even museum up there.
Golestan palace, Tehran. Every room reflected that much it blinded eyes when sun got in in some rooms.
This is what i call "a reflection"
The garden buildings
The Caspian sea, near in Babolsar
Streets in Yazd
A way into prison, that king Alexander II used in times of conquer
The prison's ceiling - astonishingly high, probably because prisoners couldn't climb till windows.
One of the oldest building in Yazd and in whole Persia
Yazd bikers
After Shiraz we went to the nomad's wedding into desert side. You ride in the middle of nowhere between mountains, stop the bike and hear the drum sound somewhere far... Get close, and you see more than 600 people densly together in valley, celebrating two muslim nomadic couples getting marryed in one nomadic tribe. All the atmosphere was astonishing, along with very exotic music...
People amazingly welcomed us there...
And the band played without the pause...
Some other guy i met did another performance in second tent (men and women have separate tents). Women had no music in tent, only on main square, where they danced.
Our
was the biggest attraction after we arrived in the whole wedding. Even the wedding couple wasn't that attractive for the crowd. There's my GS somewhere in that crowd and it was just the beginning...
Hat on the man defines it to the speciefic tribe, belonging into the same tribe two young couples are about to get marryed.
Lot of men carryed their guns there and shot into air - traditional. Here you see how strong the relation is in muslim family. But this is probably the last period when the young daughter can enjoy being with father in 'men's world' and discover it, before she's old enough and has to start using the head scarf and live in the separated 'women's world'...
Old nomad shows up some interest what's happening over there...
There men played some dangerous nomad's game with huge sticks hitting to eachother's legs. One had to protect, one to attack... Sometimes it hurt very much.
Even the older men were very fast fighters there
Getting cut off the ground with quick clout
The new generation vs the old
Nomadic girls
And i was asked tens of times to take a pic with men with their children with the bike.
A dryed out plant in Dasht-e-Kavir desert, just before the separated mountain chains began. It was extremely hot in august month there. Picture is infrared, like via desert predator's eyes...
The Persepolis...
Gateway to the kings of Persia
And the guardians...
Hope you enjoyed them.
More to come...
