It's late at night here and as I'm preparing this post for tomorrow I can smell the smoke, I can hear people chanting slogans...
3 days after the elections and we are still shocked. I cannot concentrate at all. There are talks everywhere. Nobody believes in the results. It's been compared to a coup d'état.
Now it's not just simply about Mr. Moosavi. It's about all the millions of people who have voted for him and for other candidates. Our votes have simply been ignored. 40,000,000 votes. 85% of all eligible people.
It seems Moosavi is not giving up. Today there might be a huge rally. I don't know if he can practically do anything about it, but at least he keeps some hopes alive.
آه باران! ای امید جان بیداران!
بر پلیدیها كه ما عمریست در گرداب آن غرقیم
آیا چیره خواهی شد؟
I took this picture about a year ago. Who knew it would come to use this way today.
18 mm and no distortions! I don't dare to do such a thing with my current lens!
