PESO:

More Iranian photos from my files.  Still ancient film, too soft, 

grainy - but maybe of interest historically?

Hi Tina,

What a pleasure to see photography from Iran about the ordinary folks in
ordinary everyday life that aren't death and destruction.

 

The photos all have what I call the LIFE "look of the 'late 50's and '60's"
when photojournalism was more than a digital cell phone grab snap of today's
imagery!

 

We both can remember when it truly was a wonderful world to travel and
photograph the people, places and scenery without fear of being blown out of
the sky or on the ground as the world is evolving of late.

 

I would think if you did a true search of your files you could easily come
up with an absolutely fascinating book of your life as a photojournalist.
After all, when one thinks about your travels about the world it would be
fascinating. Certainly for young people to see what it was like when life
moved at a much easier pace and affections one onto another were more in
vogue than the terror of today. 

 

Thanks for posting and please send more of the "good old days." Thank you.

 

ted.
