[Leica] [OM] IMGS: Ali Ibn Hamza Holy Shrine

[Ted Grant]

Tina,
I have to say as much as I've loved all your material from Iran with great
appreciation.
My biggest fear knowing you were in that country as it is today? Was "THAT
THE BOTH OF YOU WOLD COME HOME SAFELY."
You certainly made me wish I was a whole bunch years younger and could get
an assignment to shoot a documentary on the religious establishments. I have
no doubt it would produce an amazing photo-book in the historical sense.
Thank you for posting such an incredible photo series for the crew to
appreciate.
cheers,
Dr. ted  :-)
