Symphony of color, music, and life
One of the water streams in south of Takhte-Soleyman's pond rushing in a turn formed inside its own sediments on a slope.
A symphony of color, music, and pure life.

First impression
... of Takht-e Soleyman world heritage site.
The small pond is in fact water of an artesian spring trapped in its own sediments that have made a one hundred meter _or more_ vessel in height. The water is still flowing.
At about 8:30 in the morning the water was so calm but later small ripples started to change the its texture and color . I'll post more pictures of the lake in its different moods.
One of the most important fire-temples (Atashkadeh) of Iran, i.e. Azar-e Goshasp (or Azar-e Goshnasp), was located here in Takht-e Soleyman of which only a part of its walls is remained.
Iwan-e Khosrow is seen in the middle of picture.

Eternal [3] Ver. 2
I tried to preserve as much detail as possible in the previous version of this post, although not very successful in the high contrast lighting situation of the shot.
This time I tried to preserve the total atmosphere of light and colors of a hot early summer afternoon. I like this version much better so I am sharing it with you.

The immense-scape
A view to Turkman sahara from Khalid-Nabi (aka Khali-Nabi) heights. A landscape which seems to be sacred for Turkmans.

Heydariyeh Mosque, Qazvin
Three trips in 6 days. It is wonderful. I will post my pictures hopefully not too late.
My third trip was to Qazvin. For a long time I wished to see Heydariyeh Mosque (aka Jami' Saqeer). It was finally granted.
Heydariyeh Mosque was built around 11th AD, presumably on the remaining of a fire temple. Now it is in the middle of a abandoned elementary school yard. That's too sad to see it lonely like this.

Footmark
This is what people believe to be a child's footprint in Choqazanbil. No one is sure about it's originality.

Why ...
... did they made it like this? and how did they manage to do so, so unmistakenably?!
And why am I posting this?
