You have captured so much

by ramintork on Thu Aug 14, 2008 09:36 AM PDT

You have captured the urban jungle of Tehran with its pollution, lyricism, graffiti, humour of paradoxical imagery, rustiness, neglect, cruelty and all its beauty.

I liked the images of

torn off "Doroog Mamnoo"

The two young women from the side mirror

The humour of the graffiti

The contrast of toiled hands of the boy wearing a torn Addidas coat and collecting dried bread

Snowy streets with their water colour like beauty

Nice range of topics.  I particularly enjoyed the street scenes on this essay.  Maybe because I wish I were there.

The Seventeen Heartbreak

by Nazy Kaviani on Thu Aug 14, 2008 12:44 AM PDT

I think what fascinates me most about photography is that when I see something through the lens of an expert photographer, even if I have seen the same subject myself a hundred times, I can suddenly see new details, things I hadn't seen before. Sometimes the things I can only see through another person's lens is a delightful surprise. Sometimes it's a heartbreak. Number 17 is a heartbreak, no doubt about it.

Heartbreak or delight, Mr. Davoodi's photographs are absolutely some of the most thought provoking I have seen of my beloved Tehran. Thank you.
