Photo of the Day
A country I have come to love
This photo was taken in May 1997 just outside Bandar a Busheshr during
the third of four trips which I have made to Iran since 1996.The boats
caught my eye and as I entered the harbor four fishermen aboard the boat
in the photo invited me aboard.This is certainly one of my favorite photographs
taken in a country that I have come to love and understand as much as a
westener can. I love the architecture,the scenery, the history but more
than that I love the friends that I have made and the way Iranians make
me feel so welcome when I am far away from my home in Canada. I returned
just last October from yet another three weeks and I felt very sad sitting
in Mehrabad airport knowing that every time I leave I may never see Iran
again. Rather silly I suppose, for one who is not Iranian.
