Since my  picture gallery is still not working and I am struggling to get it to work, here is a small selection of very large photos from Iran (more to be added soon whilst I have a mildly fast computer)

One of the few pictures I was allowed to take with Iranian females. These students were at Persepolis and their teacher (centre) kindly let me take a photo with them. They were seemingly thrilled.

Persepolis

Everywhere you go there are Iranian Flags and pictures of Ayatollah Khomeini as well as pictures of young faces, now deemed martyrs from the Iran-Iraq war.
